* Disable linkage with pthread for FreeBSD/DragonFly/NetBSD, they have
pthread_* () stubs in libc (it result in same as the previous behavior).
* but NetBSD<4.99.36 does not have pthread_equal() stub in libc,
so define weak reference to it.
* Treat OpenBSD and MirBSD same as Linux to avoid linkage with libpthread.
* Others will be linked with pthread, fixes PR 46254.
tested NetBSD-5.1.2, and confirmed fixed on NetBSD-4.0.1 and OpenBSD-5.0.
Bump PKGREVISION.
Without that, (untrusted) input can fill hash buckets uneven, causing
high CPU load. (CVE-2012-0841)
To get a patch which is simple enough to get pulled up to the stable
pkgsrc branch, I've not touched "configure" but just assumed that
the POSIX functions rand(), srand() and time() are present.
bump PKGREV
link against libpthread. (It doesn't create threads, just uses
locking.) This seems to be wanted by some applications, eg vlc
issues a warning on startup (with no visible consequences afaict,
but anyway).
I hope this works for other OSes too. If not, we should probably
add support for these cases to mk/pthread.bl3.mk.
bump PKGREV
-fix more potential problems on reallocation failures (CVE-2011-1944)
-Fix memory corruption
also replace an error handling which doesn't recover from
integer overflow
bump PKGREV
changes:
-add code to plug in ICU converters by default
-Add xmlSaveOption XML_SAVE_WSNONSIG

to crash the program by a malformed XPath expression (CVE-2010-4008)
-misc improvements, cleanup

-bugfixes

-cleanup
pkgsrc note: added some tweaks to EBCDIC support, both to fix non-
portable assumptions in the code and to work around NetBSD deficiencies;
now it needs only a little fix to CP273 (newline conversion) to make
the selftest succeed on NetBSD
