- Makefile's error messages now correct if output is
redirected (patch from Ilya Zakharevich).
- Non-blocking connects/accepts now work (Problem found by
Uri Guttman).
- new_from_fd() now works.
- getline() and <> in scalar context now return undef
instead of '' when the read failed. (Problem found by
Christian Gilmore).
- Broken pipe signals are now ignored during socket close
to prevent a SSL shutdown message from killing the parent
program. (Problem found by Christian Gilmore).
- Tests should proceed much more quickly, and a semi-race was
fixed, meaning that on slow machines the tests should be
more reliable.
- Check for Scalar::Util and Weakref now uses default
$SIG{__DIE__} instead of a potentially user-altered one
(suggestion from Olaf Schneider). This only applies to Perl 5.6.0 & above.
- Session caching support (patch from Marko Asplund).
- set_default_context() added to alter the behavior of
modules that use IO::Socket::SSL from the main program.
- get_ssl_object() renamed to _get_ssl_object() to reflect
the fact that it's only supposed to be used internally
(not that you should have cared, of course).
- Added patch for Net::SSLeay to take advantage of
client-side session caching. (i.e. use 1.26 of Net-SSLeay)
module directory has changed (eg. "darwin-2level" vs.
"darwin-thread-multi-2level").
binary packages of perl modules need to be distinguishable between
being built against threaded perl and unthreaded perl, so bump the
PKGREVISION of all perl module packages and introduce
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED for perl as perl>=5.8.5nb5 so the correct
dependencies are registered and the binary packages are distinct.

include:
- Better opened() behavior when sockets close unexpectedly.
- Added support for WeakRef and Scalar::Util to allow
IO::Socket::SSL objects to auto-destroy themselves when
they go out of scope.
- Added croak()ing for unimplemented send() and recv() methods
so they are not accidentally used to transmit unencrypted
data. The Perl builtin functions cannot be reliably trapped
and are still dangerous, a fact that the POD now reflects
- Changed accept() to use inherited accept() instead of
IO::Socket::accept, so that IPv6 inheritance is possible.
- Added options to import() so that a user could specify
IPv6 or IPv4 mode of operation.
From the change log:
- Changed the fileno() function to support returning the fileno
of server sockets. (Problem found by Roland Giersig
<RGiersig at cpan org>).
- Fixed SSL_version incorrectly defaulting to SSLv2 (patch from
Roland Alder <roland.alder at celeris ch>).
Two recent changes :
v0.91
- Added support for SSL_peek and SSL_pending (peek() and
pending()). Updated documentation, tests, etc. to reflect
this.
v0.901 2002.08.19
- Fixed the warning that happens when sockets are not explicitly
closed() before the program terminates.

Changes :
- calling context_init twice destroyed global context. fix from
Jason Heiss <jheiss@ofb.net>.
- file handle tying interface implementation moved to a separate
class to prevent problems resulting from self-tying filehandles.
Harmon S. Nine <hnine@netarx.com>.
- docs/debugging.txt file added
- require Net::SSLeay v1.08
- preliminary support for non-blocking read/write
- socketToSSL() now respects context's SSL verify setting
reported by Uri Guttman <uri@stemsystems.com>.
The automatic truncation in gensolpkg doesn't work for packages which
have the same package name for the first 5-6 chars.
e.g. amanda-server and amanda-client would be named amanda and amanda.
Now, we add a SVR4_PKGNAME and use amacl for amanda-client and amase for
amanda-server.
All svr4 packages also have a vendor tag, so we have to reserve some chars
for this tag, which is normaly 3 or 4 chars. Thats why we can only use 6
or 5 chars for SVR4_PKGNAME. I used 5 for all the packages, to give the
vendor tag enough room.
All p5-* packages and a few other packages have now a SVR4_PKGNAME.
IO::Socket::SSL is a class implementing an object-oriented interface to
SSL sockets. The class is a descendent of IO::Socket::INET and provides a
subset of the base class's interface methods as well as SSL-specific methods.
