for different Python versions (in multiple Python versions). Parso is also
able to list multiple syntax errors in your python file.
Parso has been battle-tested by jedi. It was pulled out of jedi to be useful
for other projects as well.
Parso consists of a small API to parse Python and analyse the syntax tree.

Two security-related issues were recently reported.
To address this issue, we have just released Go 1.8.4 and Go 1.9.1.
We recommend that all users update to one of these releases (if you're not sure
which, choose Go 1.9.1).
The issues addressed by these releases are:
By nesting a git checkout inside another version control repository, it was
possible for an attacker to trick the "go get" command into executing arbitrary
code. The go command now refuses to use version control checkouts found inside
other version control systems, with an exception for git submodules (git inside
git).
The issue is tracked as https://golang.org/issue/22125 (Go 1.8.4) and
https://golang.org/issue/22131 (Go 1.9.1). Fixes are linked from the issues.
Thanks to Simon Rawet for the report.
In the smtp package, PlainAuth is documented as sending credentials only over
authenticated, encrypted TLS connections, but it was changed in Go 1.1 to also
send credentials on non-TLS connections when the remote server advertises that
PLAIN authentication is supported. The change was meant to allow use of PLAIN
authentication on localhost, but it has the effect of allowing a
man-in-the-middle attacker to harvest credentials. PlainAuth now requires
either TLS or a localhost connection before sending credentials, regardless of
what the remote server claims.
This issue is tracked as https://golang.org/issue/22134 (Go 1.8.4) and
https://golang.org/issue/22133 (Go 1.9.1). Fixes are linked from the issues.
Thanks to Stevie Johnstone for the report.

NAME
perldelta - what is new for perl v5.26.1
DESCRIPTION
This document describes differences between the 5.26.0 release and the
5.26.1 release.
If you are upgrading from an earlier release such as 5.24.0, first read
perl5260delta, which describes differences between 5.24.0 and 5.26.0.
Security
[CVE-2017-12837] Heap buffer overflow in regular expression compiler
Compiling certain regular expression patterns with the case-insensitive
modifier could cause a heap buffer overflow and crash perl. This has
now been fixed. [perl #131582]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131582>
[CVE-2017-12883] Buffer over-read in regular expression parser
For certain types of syntax error in a regular expression pattern, the
error message could either contain the contents of a random, possibly
large, chunk of memory, or could crash perl. This has now been fixed.
[perl #131598] <https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131598>
[CVE-2017-12814] $ENV{$key} stack buffer overflow on Windows
A possible stack buffer overflow in the %ENV code on Windows has been
fixed by removing the buffer completely since it was superfluous
anyway. [perl #131665]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131665>
Incompatible Changes
There are no changes intentionally incompatible with 5.26.0. If any
exist, they are bugs, and we request that you submit a report. See
"Reporting Bugs" below.
Modules and Pragmata
Updated Modules and Pragmata
* base has been upgraded from version 2.25 to 2.26.
The effects of dotless @INC on this module have been limited by the
introduction of a more refined and accurate solution for removing
'.' from @INC while reducing the false positives.
* charnames has been upgraded from version 1.44 to 1.45.
* Module::CoreList has been upgraded from version 5.20170530 to
5.20170922_26.
Platform Support
Platform-Specific Notes
FreeBSD
* Building with g++ on FreeBSD-11.0 has been fixed. [perl
#131337]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131337>
Windows
* Support for compiling perl on Windows using Microsoft Visual
Studio 2017 (containing Visual C++ 14.1) has been added.
* Building XS modules with GCC 6 in a 64-bit build of Perl failed
due to incorrect mapping of "strtoll" and "strtoull". This has
now been fixed. [perl #131726]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131726> [cpan
#121683]
<https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=121683> [cpan
#122353]
<https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=122353>
Selected Bug Fixes
* Several built-in functions previously had bugs that could cause
them to write to the internal stack without allocating room for the
item being written. In rare situations, this could have led to a
crash. These bugs have now been fixed, and if any similar bugs are
introduced in future, they will be detected automatically in
debugging builds. [perl #131732]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131732>
* Using a symbolic ref with postderef syntax as the key in a hash
lookup was yielding an assertion failure on debugging builds.
[perl #131627]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131627>
* List assignment ("aassign") could in some rare cases allocate an
entry on the mortal stack and leave the entry uninitialized. [perl
#131570] <https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131570>
* Attempting to apply an attribute to an "our" variable where a
function of that name already exists could result in a NULL pointer
being supplied where an SV was expected, crashing perl. [perl
#131597] <https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131597>
* The code that vivifies a typeglob out of a code ref made some false
assumptions that could lead to a crash in cases such as $::{"A"} =
sub {}; \&{"A"}. This has now been fixed. [perl #131085]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131085>
* "my_atof2" no longer reads beyond the terminating NUL, which
previously occurred if the decimal point is immediately before the
NUL. [perl #131526]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131526>
* Occasional "Malformed UTF-8 character" crashes in "s//" on utf8
strings have been fixed. [perl #131575]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131575>
* "perldoc -f s" now finds "s///". [perl #131371]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131371>
* Some erroneous warnings after utf8 conversion have been fixed.
[perl #131190]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131190>
* The "jmpenv" frame to catch Perl exceptions is set up lazily, and
this used to be a bit too lazy. The catcher is now set up earlier,
preventing some possible crashes. [perl #105930]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=105930>
* Spurious "Assuming NOT a POSIX class" warnings have been removed.
[perl #131522]
<https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131522>

generating a new crash dump from the node running the Crashdump
Viewer.
- observer: Add system statistics and limits to frontpage in observer.
- public_key, ssl**: Improved error propagation and reports
- ssh: A new option modify_algorithms is implemented. It enables
specifying changes on the default algorithms list.
- tools/xref: The predefined Xref analysis locals_not_used now
understands the -on_load() attribute and does not report unused
functions.
- tools/fprof: When sampling multiple processes and analyzing with
totals set to true, the output now sums together all caller and
callee entries which concerns the same function.

Cargo
Cargo API token location moved from ~/.cargo/config to ~/.cargo/credentials.
Cargo will now build main.rs binaries that are in sub-directories of src/bin. ie. Having src/bin/server/main.rs and src/bin/client/main.rs generates target/debug/server and target/debug/client
You can now specify version of a binary when installed through cargo install using --vers.
Added --no-fail-fast flag to cargo to run all benchmarks regardless of failure.
Changed the convention around which file is the crate root.
The include/exclude property in Cargo.toml now accepts gitignore paths instead of glob patterns. Glob patterns are now deprecated.
Compatibility Notes
Functions with 'static in their return types will now not be as usable as if they were using lifetime parameters instead.
The reimplementation of {f32, f64}::is_sign_{negative, positive} now takes the sign of NaN into account where previously didn't.
Version 1.19.0 (2017-07-20)
Language
Numeric fields can now be used for creating tuple structs. RFC 1506 For example struct Point(u32, u32); let x = Point { 0: 7, 1: 0 };.
Macro recursion limit increased to 1024 from 64.
Added lint for detecting unused macros.
loop can now return a value with break. RFC 1624 For example: let x = loop { break 7; };
C compatible unions are now available. RFC 1444 They can only contain Copy types and cannot have a Drop implementation. Example: union Foo { bar: u8, baz: usize }
Non capturing closures can now be coerced into fns, RFC 1558 Example: let foo: fn(u8) -> u8 = |v: u8| { v };
Compiler
Add support for bootstrapping the Rust compiler toolchain on Android.
Change arm-linux-androideabi to correspond to the armeabi official ABI. If you wish to continue targeting the armeabi-v7a ABI you should use --target armv7-linux-androideabi.
Fixed ICE when removing a source file between compilation sessions.
Minor optimisation of string operations.
Compiler error message is now aborting due to previous error(s) instead of aborting due to N previous errors This was previously inaccurate and would only count certain kinds of errors.
The compiler now supports Visual Studio 2017
The compiler is now built against LLVM 4.0.1 by default
Added a lot of new error codes
Added target-feature=+crt-static option RFC 1721 Which allows libraries with C Run-time Libraries(CRT) to be statically linked.
Fixed various ARM codegen bugs
Libraries
String now implements FromIterator<Cow<'a, str>> and Extend<Cow<'a, str>>
Vec now implements From<&mut [T]>
Box<[u8]> now implements From<Box<str>>
SplitWhitespace now implements Clone
[u8]::reverse is now 5x faster and [u16]::reverse is now 1.5x faster
eprint! and eprintln! macros added to prelude. Same as the print! macros, but for printing to stderr.

Cargo
Build scripts can now add environment variables to the environment the crate is being compiled in. Example: println!("cargo:rustc-env=FOO=bar");
Subcommands now replace the current process rather than spawning a new child process
Workspace members can now accept glob file patterns
Added --all flag to the cargo bench subcommand to run benchmarks of all the members in a given workspace.
Updated libssh2-sys to 0.2.6
Target directory path is now in the cargmetadata
Cargo no longer checks out a local working directory for the crates.io index This should provide smaller file size for the registry, and improve cloning times, especially on Windows machines.
Added an --exclude option for excluding certai using the --all option
Cargo will now automatically retry when receiving a 5xx error from crates.io
The --features option now accepts multiple comma or space delimited values.
Added support for custom target specific runners
Misc
Added ow prefer to download rust packages with XZ compression over GZip packages.
Added the ability to escape # in rust documentation By adding additional #'s ie. ## is now #
Compatibility Notes
MutexGuard<T> may only be Sync if T is Sync.
-Z flagning for a year previous to this.
As a result of the -Z flag change, the cargo-check plugin no longer works. Users should migrate to the built-in check command, which has been available since 1.16.
Ending a float literal with ._ is now a hard erro use ::self::foo; is now a hard error. self paths are always relative while the :: prefix makes a path absolute, but was ignored and the path was relative regardless.
Floating point constants in match patterns is now a hard error This was previously ts that don't derive PartialEq & Eq used match patterns is now a hard error This was previously a warning.
Lifetimes named '_ are no longer allowed. This was previously a warning.
From the pound escape, lines consisting of multiple #s are now visible
It is an error to reexport private enum variants. This is known to break a number of crates that depend on an older version of mustache.
On Windows, if VCINSTALLDIR is set incorrectly, rustc will try to use it to find the linker, and the build will fail where it did not previously
Version 1.18.0 (2017-06-08)
Language
Stabilize pub(restricted) pub can now accept a module path to make the item visible to just that module tree. Also accepts the keyword crate to make something public to the whole crate but not users of the library. Example: pub(crate) mod utils;. RFC 1422.
Stabilize #![windows_subsystem] attribute conservative exposure of the /SUBSYSTEM linker flag on Windows platforms. RFC 1665.
Refactor of trait object type parsing Now ty in macros can accept types like Write + Send, trailing + are now supported in trait objects, and better error reporting for trait objects starting with ?Sized.
0e+10 is now a valid floating point literal
Now warns if you bind a lifetime parameter to 'static
Tuples, Enum variant fields, and structs with no repr attribute or with #[repr(Rust)] are reordered to minimize padding and produce a smaller representation in some cases.
Compiler
rustc can now emit mir with --emit mir
Improved LLVM IR for trivial functions
Added explanation for E0090(Wrong number of lifetimes are supplied)
rustc compilation is now 15%-20% faster Thanks to optimisation opportunities found through profiling
Improved backtrace formatting when panicking
Libraries
Specialized Vec::from_iter being passed vec::IntoIter if the iterator hasn't been advanced the original Vec is reassembled with no actual iteration or reallocation.
Simplified HashMap Bucket interface provides performance improvements for iterating and cloning.
Specialize Vec::from_elem to use calloc
Fixed Race condition in fs::create_dir_all
No longer caching stdio on Windows
Optimized insertion sort in slice insertion sort in some cases 2.50%~ faster and in one case now 12.50% faster.

Added partial Pijul support Pijul is a version control system in Rust. You can now create new cargo projects with Pijul using cargo new --vcs pijul
Now always emits build script warnings for crates that fail to build
Added Android build support
Added --bins and --tests flags now you can build all programs of a certain type, for example cargo build --bins will build all binaries.
Added support for haiku
Misc
rustdoc can now use pulldown-cmark with the --enable-commonmark flag
Added rust-winbg script for better debugging on Windows
Rust now uses the official cross compiler for NetBSD
rustdoc now accepts # at the start of files
Fixed jemalloc support for musl
Compatibility Notes
Changes to how the 0 flag works in format! Padding zeroes are now always placed after the sign if it exists and before the digits. With the # flag the zeroes are placed after the prefix and before the digits.
Due to the struct field optimisation, using transmute on structs that have no repr attribute or #[repr(Rust)] will no longer work. This has always been undefined behavior, but is now more likely to break in practice.
The refactor of trait object type parsing fixed a bug where + was receiving the wrong priority parsing things like &for<'a> Tr<'a> + Send as &(for<'a> Tr<'a> + Send) instead of (&for<'a> Tr<'a>) + Send
Overlapping inherent impls are now a hard error
PartialOrd and Ord must agree on the ordering.
rustc main.rs -o out --emit=asm,llvm-ir Now will output out.asm and out.ll instead of only one of the filetypes.
calling a function that returns Self will no longer work when the size of Self cannot be statically determined.
rustc now builds with a "pthreads" flavour of MinGW for Windows GNU this has caused a few regressions namely:
Changed the link order of local static/dynamic libraries (respecting the order on given rather than having the compiler reorder).
Changed how MinGW is linked, native code linked to dynamic libraries may require manually linking to the gcc support library (for the native code itself)
Version 1.17.0 (2017-04-27)
Language
The lifetime of statics and consts defaults to 'static. RFC 1623
Fields of structs may be initialized without duplicating the field/variable names. RFC 1682
Self may be included in the where clause of impls. RFC 1647
When coercing to an unsized type lifetimes must be equal. That is, there is no subtyping between T and U when T: Unsize<U>. For example, coercing &mut [&'a X; N] to &mut [&'b X] requires 'a be equal to 'b. Soundness fix.
Values passed to the indexing operator, [], automatically coerce
Static variables may contain references to other statics
Compiler
Exit quickly on only --emit dep-info
Make -C relocation-model more correctly determine whether the linker creates a position-independent executable
Add -C overflow-checks to directly control whether integer overflow panics
The rustc type checker now checks items on demand instead of in a single in-order pass. This is mostly an internal refactoring in support of future work, including incremental type checking, but also resolves RFC 1647, allowing Self to appear in impl where clauses.
Optimize vtable loads
Turn off vectorization for Emscripten targets

Cargo
Add cargo check --all
Add an option to ignore SSL revocation checking
Add cargo run --package
Add required_features
Assume build.rs is a build script
Find workspace via workspace_root link in containing member
Misc
Documentation is rendered with mdbook instead of the obsolete, in-tree rustbook

Improve the style of the sidebar in rustdoc output
Configure build correctly on 64-bit CPU's with the armhf ABI
Fix MSP430 breakage due to i128
Preliminary Solaris/SPARCv9 support
rustc is linked statically on Windows MSVC targets, allowing it to run without installing the MSVC runtime.
rustdoc --test includes file names in test names
This release includes builds of std for sparc64-unknown-linux-gnu, aarch64-unknown-linux-fuchsia, and x86_64-unknown-linux-fuchsia.
Initial support for aarch64-unknown-freebsd
Initial support for i686-unknown-netbsd
This release no longer includes the old makefile build system. Rust is built with a custom build system, written in Rust, and with Cargo.
Add Debug implementations for libcollection structs
TypeId implements PartialOrd and Ord
--test-threads=0 produces an error
rustup installs documentation by default
The Rust source includes NatVis visualizations. These can be used by WinDbg and Visual Studio to improve the debugging experience.
Compatibility Notes
Rust 1.17 does not correctly detect the MSVC 2017 linker. As a workaround, either use MSVC 2015 or run vcvars.bat.
When coercing to an unsized type lifetimes must be equal. That is, disallow subtyping between T and U when T: Unsize<U>, e.g. coercing &mut [&'a X; N] to &mut [&'b X] requires 'a be equal to 'b. Soundness fix.
format! and Display::to_string panic if an underlying formatting implementation returns an error. Previously the error was silently ignored. It is incorrect for write_fmt to return an error when writing to a string.
In-tree crates are verified to be unstable. Previously, some minor crates were marked stable and could be accessed from the stable toolchain.
Rust git source no longer includes vendored crates. Those that need to build with vendored crates should build from release tarballs.
Fix inert attributes from proc_macro_derives
During crate resolution, rustc prefers a crate in the sysroot if two crates are otherwise identical. Unlikely to be encountered outside the Rust build system.
Fixed bugs around how type inference interacts with dead-code. The existing code generally ignores the type of dead-code unless a type-hint is provided; this can cause surprising inference interactions particularly around defaulting. The new code uniformly ignores the result type of dead-code.
Tuple-struct constructors with private fields are no longer visible
Lifetime parameters that do not appear in the arguments are now considered early-bound, resolving a soundness bug (#32330). The hr_lifetime_in_assoc_type future-compatibility lint has been in effect since April of 2016.
rustdoc: fix doctests with non-feature crate attributes
Make transmuting from fn item types to pointer-sized types a hard error
under NetBSD. Bump PKGREVISION
Rust language 1.20.0 uses these options and Rust build system uses it
as '-l tinfo' and our wrapper does not handle this.
nodejs 8.6.0
============
crypto
- Support for multiple ECDH curves.
dgram
- Added setMulticastInterface() API.
- Custom lookup functions are now supported.
n-api
- The command-line flag is no longer required to use N-API.

nodejs 8.5.0
============
build
- Snapshots are now re-enabled in V8
console
- Implement minimal console.group().
deps
- upgrade libuv to 1.14.1
- update nghttp2 to v1.25.0
dns
- Add verbatim option to dns.lookup(). When true, results from the DNS
resolver are passed on as-is, without the reshuffling that Node.js
otherwise does that puts IPv4 addresses before IPv6 addresses.
fs
- add fs.copyFile and fs.copyFileSync which allows for more efficient
copying of files.
inspector
- Enable async stack traces
module
- Add support for ESM. This is currently behind the
--experimental-modules flag and requires the .mjs extension. node
--experimental-modules index.mjs
napi
- implement promise
os
- Add support for CIDR notation to the output of the networkInterfaces()
method.
perf_hooks
- An initial implementation of the Performance Timing API for Node.js.
This is the same Performance Timing API implemented by modern browsers
with a number of Node.js specific properties. The User Timing mark()
and measure() APIs are implemented.
tls
- multiple PFX in createSecureContext
SPARC
Support for the SPARC M8 processor has been added.
The switches -mfix-ut700 and -mfix-gr712rc have been added to work around an erratum in LEON3FT processors.
Use of the Floating-point Multiply Single to Double (FsMULd) instruction can now be controlled by the -mfsmuld and -fno-fsmuld options.
RTEMS
The Ada run-time support uses now thread-local storage (TLS).
Support for RISC-V has been added.
Support for 64-bit PowerPC using the ELFv2 ABI with 64-bit long double has been added.
Bug fixes: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?bug_status=RESOLVED&resolution=FIXED&target_milestone=7.2
Add a PRINT_PLIST_AWK to help avoid this being removed again in the future,
though with all the PLIST_VARS used it's still difficult to keep updated. It
is probably worth splitting the vars into individual PLIST files instead.

Updates
-------
* ASDF 3.2.1
New in version 1.3.21
- minor incompatible change: the CLOBBER-IT restart for defstruct
redefintion has been removed after a 15 year deprecation cycle.
Use the new name, RECKLESSLY-CONTINUE. Note also that this restart
is hidden if deemed unsafe due to altered placement of untagged slots
in the structure.
- enhancement: the assignment of -DSBCL_PREFIX= in src/runtime/GNUmakefile
can be removed as a local patch, which results in an sbcl executable
that finds its core file relative to itself by looking in "../lib/sbcl".
- enhancement: backends using the generational GC are able to relocate
dynamic space anywhere the operating system places it. This feature
can be disabled by removing :relocatable-heap from the build configuration.
Not supported on Windows.
- enhancement: DEFMETHOD no longer signals IMPLICIT-GENERIC-FUNCTION-WARNING.
- enhancement: better type conflict detection for high order functions,
e.g. (find x "123" :test #'=)
- enhancement: the tabular output of ROOM is aligned dynamically,
preventing misaligned tables for larger sizes or counts.
- enhancement: ROOM reports on immobile space if applicable.
- optimization: optimized external-format routines.
- bug fix: SB-INTROSPECT:ALLOCATION-INFORMATION returns :IMMOBILE
instead of :FOREIGN for objects in immobile space.
- bug fix: dotted lists in special forms and function call forms signal
an appropriate error
- bug fix: EQUALP hash tables with pathname keys now ignore internal slots.
(#1712944, reported by Jason Miller)
New in version 1.3.20
- minor incompatible change: DEF{GENERIC,METHOD} no longer accept
some illegal lambda lists such as (defgeneric bar (foo &key foo))
or (defgeneric baz (t)) that were accepted before.
- optimization: a valueless &AUX binding in a BOA constructor does not
force all slots reads in safe code to perform a full type check.
- optimization: ATOMIC-PUSH and ATOMIC-POP generate better code
- bug fix: the low-level debugger would erroneously print - or not print
as the case may be - "(bad-address)" for some objects depending whether
the --dynamic-space-size argument was used at Lisp startup
- bug fix: a DEFCONSTANT with a non non-eql-comparable object as the value
could cause miscompilation if that constant appeared as the default
expression for an &OPTIONAL binding
- bug fix: generic function lambda lists are now checked for repeated
and otherwise illegal entries. (#1704114)
- bug fix: setting gencgc_verbose = 1 could cause deadlock in fprintf()
depending on the platform's stdio implementation. The relevant code
has been changed to use snprintf() and write() instead.
New in version 1.3.19
- enhancement: specialized arrays can be printed readably without using
*read-eval*
- enhancement: SB-DEBUG:PRINT-BACKTRACE truncates huge string arguments.
The full string remains available for inspection via (SB-DEBUG:ARG).
- bug fix: backtracing from several threads at once could fail
- bug fix: floating-point infinities could not be used as keys in EQUALP
hash tables. (#1696274)
- bug fix: random sb-fasteval failures. (#1642708)
- bug fix: align the stack in callback wrappers to defend against C compiler
over-aggressive use of SIMD. (#1697528)
- bug fix: don't try to find the class when reporting that a class does not
exist for a primitive type. (#1697226)

Changes from ocaml 4.04.2 include (MPR and GPR changed to M and G to not
trigger our CVS hooks):
(Changes that can break existing programs are marked with a "*")
### Language features:
### Code generation and optimizations:
- M#7201, G#954: Correct wrong optimisation of "0 / <expr>"
and "0 mod <expr>" in the case when <expr> was a non-constant
evaluating to zero
(Mark Shinwell, review by Gabriel Scherer, Leo White and Xavier Leroy)
- M#7357, G#832: Improve compilation time for toplevel
include(struct ... end : sig ... end)
(Alain Frisch, report by Hongbo Zhang, review by Jacques Garrigue)
- M#7533, G#1173: Correctly perform side effects for certain
cases of "/" and "mod"
(Mark Shinwell, report by Jan Mitgaard)
- G#504: Instrumentation support for fuzzing with afl-fuzz.
(Stephen Dolan, review by Alain Frisch, Pierre Chambart, Mark
Shinwell, Gabriel Scherer and Damien Doligez)
- G#863, G#1068, G#1069: Optimise matches with constant

(KC Sivaramakrishnan)
### Runtime system:
- M#385, G#953: Add caml_startup_exn
(Mark Shinwell)
- M#7423, G#946: expose new exception-raising functions
`void caml_{failwith,invalid_argument}_value(value msg)`
in addition to
`void caml_{failwith,invalid_argument}(char const *msg)`.
The previous functions would not free their message argument, so
were inconvient for dynamically-allocated messages; the messages
passed to the new functions are handled by the garbage collector.
(Gabriel Scherer, review by Mark Shinwell, request by Immanuel Litzroth)
- M#7557, G#1213: More security for getenv
(Damien Doligez, reports by Seth Arnold and Eric Milliken, review by
Xavier Leroy, David Allsopp, Stephen Dolan, Hannes Mehnert)
- G#795: remove 256-character limitation on Sys.executable_name
(Xavier Leroy)
- G#891: Use -fno-builtin-memcmp when building runtime with gcc.
(Leo White)
### Type system:
- M#6608, G#901: unify record types when overriding all fields
(Tadeu Zagallo and Gabriel Scherer, report by Jeremy Yallop,
review by David Allsopp, Jacques Garrigue)
* M#7414, G#929: Soundness bug with non-generalized type variables and
functors.
(compatibility: some code using module-global mutable state will
fail at compile-time and is fixed by adding extra annotations;
see the Mantis and Github discussions.)
(Jacques Garrigue, report by Leo White)
### Compiler user-interface and warnings:
- M#7050, G#748 G#843 G#864: new `-args/-args0 <file>` parameters to
provide extra command-line arguments in a file -- see documentation.
User programs may implement similar options using the new `Expand`
constructor of the `Arg` module.
(Bernhard Schommer, review by J?r?mie Dimino, Gabriel Scherer
and Damien Doligez, discussion with Alain Frisch and Xavier Leroy,
feature request from the Coq team)
- M#7137, G#960: "-open" command line flag now accepts
a module path (not a module name)
(Arseniy Alekseyev and Leo White)
- M#7172, G#970: add extra (ocamlc -config) options
int_size, word_size, ext_exe
(Gabriel Scherer, request by Daniel B?nzli)
- M#7315, G#736: refine some error locations
(Gabriel Scherer and Alain Frisch, report by Matej Ko??k)
- M#7473, G#1025: perform proper globbing for command-line arguments on
Windows
(Jonathan Protzenko)

and that "ocamlopt -pack" is only given .cmx and .cmi files.
(Xavier Leroy)
- G#796: allow compiler plugins to declare their own arguments.
(Fabrice Le Fessant)

compiler when called to compile third-party C source files
(S?bastien Hinderer, review by Adrien Nader and David Allsopp)
- G#915: fix -dsource (pprintast.ml) bugs
(Runhang Li, review by Alain Frisch)
* G#933: ocamlopt -p now reports an error on platforms that do not
support profiling with gprof; dummy profiling libraries are no longer
installed on such platforms.
This can be tested with ocamlopt -config
(S?bastien Hinderer)
- G#1009: "ocamlc -c -linkall" and "ocamlopt -c -linkall" can now be used
to set the "always link" flag on individual compilation units. This
controls linking with finer granularity than "-a -linkall", which sets
the "always link" flag on all units of the given library.
(Xavier Leroy)
- G#1015: add option "-plugin PLUGIN" to ocamldep too. Use compilerlibs
to build ocamldep. Add option "-depend" to ocamlc/ocamlopt to behave
as ocamldep. Remove any use of ocamldep to build the distribution.
(Fabrice Le Fessant)
- G#1027: various improvements to -dtimings, mostly including time
spent in subprocesses like preprocessors
(Valentin Gatien-Baron, review by Gabriel Scherer)
- G#1098: the compiler now takes the boolean "OCAML_COLOR" environment
variable into account if "-color" is not provided. This allows users
to override the default behaviour without modifying invocations of ocaml
manually.
(Hannes Mehnert, Guillaume Bury,
review by Daniel B?nzli, Gabriel Scherer, Damien Doligez)
### Standard library:
- M#6975, G#902: Truncate function added to stdlib Buffer module

(Daniel B?nzli)
- G#760: Add a functions List.compare_lengths and
List.compare_length_with to avoid full list length computations
(Fabrice Le Fessant, review by Leo White, Josh Berdine and Gabriel Scherer)
- G#778: Arg: added option Expand that allows to expand a string
argument to a string array of new arguments
(Bernhard Schommer, review by Gabriel Scherer and J?r?mie Dimino)
- G#849: Expose a Spacetime.enabled value
(Leo White)
- G#885: Option-returning variants of stdlib functions
(Alain Frisch, review by David Allsopp and Bart Jacobs)

non-labeled counterparts. Also add missing @@ocaml.deprecated attributes
in StringLabels and BytesLabels.
(Roma Sokolov, review by Gabriel Scherer, Jacques Garrigue,
Gabriel Radanne, Alain Frisch)

(this was a regression in 4.03)
(Florian Angeletti, review by Gabriel Scherer)
- G#1042: Fix escaping of command-line arguments in
Unix.create_process{,_env} under Windows. Arguments with tabs should now
be received verbatim by the child process.

### Debugging and profiling:
- M#7258: ocamldebug's "install_printer" command had problems with
module aliases
(Xavier Leroy)
- G#378: Add [Printexc.raise_with_backtrace] to raise an exception using

extensions section of the manual. Convert some existing code
examples to this format.
(Florian Angeletti)
- G#1082: clarify that the use of quoted string for preprocessed
foreign quotations still requires the use of an extension node
[%foo ...] to mark non-standard interpretation.
(Gabriel Scherer, request by Matthew Wahab in G#1066,
review by Florian Angeletti)
### Other libraries:
- M#7158: Event.sync, Mutex.create, Condition.create cause too many GCs.
The fix is to no longer consider mutexes and condition variables

- G#650: in the Unix library, add `?cloexec:bool` optional arguments to
functions that create file descriptors (`dup`, `dup2`, `pipe`, `socket`,
`socketpair`, `accept`). Implement these optional arguments in the
most atomic manner provided by the operating system to set (or clear)
the close-on-exec flag at the same time the file descriptor is created,
reducing the risk of race conditions with `exec` or `create_process`
calls running in other threads, and improving security. Also: add a
`O_KEEPEXEC` flag for `openfile` by symmetry with `O_CLOEXEC`.

### Compiler distribution build system: Makefile factorization
The compiler distribution build system (the set of Makefiles used to
build the compiler distribution) traditionally had separate Makefiles
for Unix and Windows, which lead to some amount of duplication and
subtle differences and technical debt in general -- for people working
on the compiler distribution, but also cross-compilation or porting to
new systems. During the 4.05 development period, S?bastien Hinderer
worked on harmonizing the build rules and merging the two build
systems.
* Some changes were made to the config/Makefile file which
is exported as $(ocamlc -where)/Makefile.config, and on
which some advanced users might rely. The changes are
as follows:
- a BYTERUN variable was added that points to the installed ocamlrun
- the PARTIALLD variable was removed (PACKLD is more complete)
- the always-empty DLLCCCOMPOPTS was removed
- the SHARED variable was removed; its value is "shared" or "noshared",
which duplicates the existing and more convenient
SUPPORTS_SHARED_LIBRARIES variable whose value is "true" or "false".
Note that Makefile.config may change further in the future and relying
on it is a bit fragile. We plan to make `ocamlc -config` easier to use
for scripting purposes, and have a stable interface there. If you rely
on Makefile.config, you may want to get in touch with S?bastien Hinderer
or participate to M#7116 (Allow easy retrieval of Makefile.config's values)
or M#7172 (More information in ocamlc -config).
The complete list of changes is listed below.
- G#705: update Makefile.nt so that ocamlnat compiles
for non-Cygwin Windows ports.

NetBSD (8.99.2)'s "/bin/tar" fails to handle the extented headers
and extracts files into the wrong directory. This in turn least
to package list problems during the installation phase.
The latest Go release, version 1.9, arrives six months after Go 1.8 and
is the tenth release in the Go 1.x series. There are two changes to the
language: adding support for type aliases and defining when
implementations may fuse floating point operations. Most of the changes
are in the implementation of the toolchain, runtime, and libraries. As
always, the release maintains the Go 1 promise of compatibility. We
expect almost all Go programs to continue to compile and run as before.
The release adds transparent monotonic time support, parallelizes
compilation of functions within a package, better supports test helper
functions, includes a new bit manipulation package, and has a new
concurrent map type.
There are some instabilities on FreeBSD that are known but not
understood. These can lead to program crashes in rare cases. See issue
15658. Any help in solving this FreeBSD-specific issue would be
appreciated.
Go stopped running NetBSD builders during the Go 1.9 development cycle
due to NetBSD kernel crashes, up to and including NetBSD 7.1. As Go 1.9
is being released, NetBSD 7.1.1 is being released with a fix. However,
at this time we have no NetBSD builders passing our test suite. Any help
investigating the various NetBSD issues would be appreciated.
"The bitrot will continue until morale improves."
Go 1.4 is only used as a bootstrap helper to compile a more recent Go.
However, cgo in 1.4 no longer works with current binutils.
Prodded by Thomas Orgis on the mailing list.
correct order of the include files, and use this also for i386 and
amd64 as well. For alpha, move the Linux-specific settings into the
alpha/linux.h file.
Verified that this package now builds on powerpc.
This is largely the patches posted by maya@ on Jul 23, I just mirrored
the changes to include order to NetBSD/powerpc as well. Thanks!
Bump PKGREVISION, bump to gcc5-libs to follow shortly.
These changes aren't necessary, but on the day when guile-2.0.x is
no longer the primary, then the switch to using a non-default
installation prefix should be seamless.
If Guile installs into a non-default installation prefix, then
use ${GUILE_PREFIX}/info and ${GUILE_PREFIX}/man as the locations
for the installed GNU info files and manpages. This avoids needing
to do a lot of fixes to the PLISTs.

* bpo-29591: Update expat copy from 2.1.1 to 2.2.0 to get fixes of CVE-2016-0718 and CVE-2016-4472. See https://sourceforge.net/p/expat/bugs/537/ for more information.
* bpo-30694: Upgrade expat copy from 2.2.0 to 2.2.1 to get fixes of multiple security vulnerabilities including: CVE-2017-9233 (External entity infinite loop DoS), CVE-2016-9063 (Integer overflow, re-fix), CVE-2016-0718 (Fix regression bugs from 2.2.0’s fix to CVE-2016-0718) and CVE-2012-0876 (Counter hash flooding with SipHash). Note: the CVE-2016-5300 (Use os- specific entropy sources like getrandom) doesn’t impact Python, since Python already gets entropy from the OS to set the expat secret using XML_SetHashSalt().
* bpo-26657: Fix directory traversal vulnerability with http.server on Windows. This fixes a regression that was introduced in 3.3.4rc1 and 3.4.0rc1. Based on patch by Philipp Hagemeister.
* bpo-30500: Fix urllib.parse.splithost() to correctly parse fragments. For example, splithost('//127.0.0.1#@evil.com/') now correctly returns the 127.0.0.1 host, instead of treating @evil.com as the host in an authentification (login@host).
* bpo-30730: Prevent environment variables injection in subprocess on Windows. Prevent passing other invalid environment variables and command arguments.

This is a bugfix release so no buildlink change.
ChangeLog:
New Features in Qore
* added broken-logic-precedence warning.
Bug Fixes in Qore
* fixed documentation regarding escaping of characters in
strings and added a parse exception in case of trying
to escape octal values in range 400-777 (issue 50)
* fixed a crashing bug where Datasource::getConfigString()
was called without a connection, also could crash in an
implicit internal call to this method with the
DatasourcePool class when connections were lost and the
warning callback should be called (issue 1992)
* fixed a bug where Datasource::getConfigHash() returned
different values depending on if the object was
connected or not (issue 1994)
We should not expand call arguments in between flags reg setting and
flags reg using instructions, as it may expand with flags reg
clobbering insn (ADD in this case).
Attached patch moves expansion out of the link. Also, change
zero-extension to non-flags reg clobbering sequence in case we perform
zero-extension with and.

The install would presumably fail outright for user shells like tcsh, so we
need to set SHELL regardless. But technically install-sh has a quoting bug
in the exit trap, which even results in SHELL=zsh failing.
go14 has no relro support AFAICT.
go-1.8.3 has if you use -buildmode=pie, but it claims it's not supported
on Linux.
Disable relro checking for go packages until bsiegert has time to
look at this.
PHP uniqid() relies on microsecond-precise system clock to produce an
unique identifier. In order to avoid using the same value, it first
calls usleep(1) to wait for the next microsecond.
Unfortunately, usleep() specification says "The suspension time may be
longer than requested due to the scheduling of other activity by the
system." Indeed, the pause may as as long as an entire execution slice,
causing a uniqid() call to last more than 10 ms.
This is fixed by replacing the usleep() call by time polling using
gettimeofday() until the microscecond change. Since the getttimeoday()
system call lasts around a microsecond, only a small time is wasted
calling multiple gettimeofday. On the benefit side, uniqid() performance
in increased 10000 fold without changing its behavior.
