plugin for it doesn't build there; deploy a PLIST_VAR to account for
this.

originated from a remote server rather than the local server - this caused
BitchX to falsely report channel desynch and incorrectly hide some
numerics. (caf)

reference in most cases. (caf)

(bad password) that the client wasn't expecting. (caf)
* Add /HOP and /DEHOP commands for halfop. (caf)
* Removed "scan" plugin, this functionality is now covered by /SCAN -stat.
(caf)
* Change NICKSORT_OP to NICKSORT_STAT (sorts nicks by channel status -
chanop first, then halops, voices and others). Added /SCAN -stat
to sort nicks using NICKSORT_OP. Removed NICKSORT_VOICE - it was broken
anyway. (caf)
* Add halfop nick prefix to default status line, and change the voice prefix
so it appears whether or not you're opped. (caf)
* Add halfop support to $channel() scripting function. (caf)
* Rework /SCAN and /NAMES formatting. This removes the /FSETs NAMES_BOTCOLOR,
NAMES_FRIENDCOLOR, NAMES_NICKCOLOR, NAMES_OPCOLOR, NAMES_SHITCOLOR and
NAMES_VOICECOLOR and replaces them with new /FSETs. (caf)
* Add $ishalfop(<nick> <channel) scripting function, just like the
existing function in EPIC. (caf)
* Fix four bugs in the /FE scripting function. (caf)
* Fix incompatibility with 64-bit platforms. (caf)
* Fix module load version check logic. (caf)
* [1.1s01] Cleanups to allow compiling with new gcc releases. (caf)
* [1.1s01] Fix configure check for termcap.h. (caf)
* [1.1s01] Re-implement code to find available vhost addresses
(CVE-2007-5839). (caf)
* [1.1s01] Fix test for GCC >= 2.7 - fixes compiling on S390 platform. (caf)
* [1.1s01] Improve buffer handling in convert_output_format_raw
(CVE-2007-4584). (caf)

{perl>=5.16.6,p5-ExtUtils-ParseXS>=3.15}:../../devel/p5-ExtUtils-ParseXS
since pkgsrc enforces the newest perl version anyway, so they
should always pick perl, but sometimes (pkg_add) don't due to the
design of the {,} syntax.
No effective change for the above reason.
