which are the full option names used to set rpath directives for the
linker and the compiler, respectively. In places were we are invoking
the linker, use "${LINKER_RPATH_FLAG} <path>", where the space is
inserted in case the flag is a word, e.g. -rpath. The default values
of *_RPATH_FLAG are set by the compiler/*.mk files, depending on the
compiler that you use. They may be overridden on a ${OPSYS}-specific
basis by setting _OPSYS_LINKER_RPATH_FLAG and _OPSYS_COMPILER_RPATH_FLAG,
respectively. Garbage-collect _OPSYS_RPATH_NAME and _COMPILER_LD_FLAG.
This is security fix release, fixing several important security
issues. From the ChangeLog:
* Fixed strip_tags() to correctly handle '\0' characters.
* Improved stability during startup when memory_limit is used.
* Replace alloca() with emalloc() for better stack protection.
* Added missing safe_mode checks inside ftok and itpc.
* Fixed bug #28963 Fixed address allocation routine in IMAP extension.
* Fixed bug #28632 Prevent open_basedir bypass via MySQL's LOAD DATA LOCAL.
Note: package update also includes extra patches from PHP CVS not
present in stock PHP 4.3.8 release - compilation fix for
mssql extension and Zend engine memory-use-after-free fix.
Change list from release notes:
* Synchronized bundled GD library with GD 2.0.23.
* Fixed a bug that prevented compilation of GD extensions against
FreeType 2.1.0-2.1.2.
* Fixed thread safety issue with informix connection id.
* Fixed incorrect resolving of relative paths by glob() in windows.
* Fixed mapping of Greek letters to html entities.
* Fixed a bug that caused an on shutdown crash when using PHP with Apache
2.0.49.
* Fixed a number of crashes inside pgsql, cpdf and gd extensions.
All in all this release fixes over 30 bugs that have been discovered
and resolved since the 4.3.6 release.
Some highlights of changes since 4.2.3:
* PCRE updated to 4.3, GD to 2.0.15
* improved Apache2 support
* much improved stream & URL wrapper support, output compression support
* added CLI (Command Line Interface) SAPI
* debug_backtrace() backported from ZendEngine2
* faster build system
* huge number of other bug fixes and improvements
Packaging changes:
* 'pcre', 'xml', and 'session' modules folded back into main package -
'pcre' and 'xml' is required by PEAR, and 'session' is just too essential
to be separate
* 'gd' module now uses bundled PHP GD library, which is better integrated
* PHP modules use shared distinfo when possible to ease future PHP updates
* ${PREFIX}/bin/php is now CLI version, ${PREFIX}/libexec/cgi-big/php
remains CGI version
Makefiles simply need to use this value often, for better or for
worse.
(2) Create a new variable FIX_RPATH that lists variables that should
be cleansed of -R or -rpath values if ${_USE_RPATH} is "no". By
default, FIX_RPATH contains LIBS, X11_LDFLAGS, and LDFLAGS, and
additional variables may be appended from package Makefiles.
