non-alphanumeric characters with a '.' (CVE-2011-4612)
-Bugfixes

-XSL update
pkgsrc change:
don't set the "chroot" flag in the installed sample config file -- this
configuration doesn't work without further work because the web server
misses its data files in the sandbox
approved by The Maintainer
This is a stable release with minor bugfixes and a new feature, a
new umx file loader. It fixes a memory leak, an invalid read upon
backwards position jumps, and documentation problems, and adds
cleanups.
pax -rw, the destination directory must exist. pax in NetBSD creates it if
not, pax in MirBSD complains. I read through all pkgsrc Makefiles that use
pax and added an entry to INSTALLATION_DIRS, or an INSTALL_DATA_DIR
invocation.
I did not test all the changes but they should be fairly safe. If you notice
any breakage because of this change, please contact me.

Summary of changes between libmikmod 3.2.0 and libmikmod 3.3.2 ():
==========================================================================
libmikmod 3.3.2 was released on 05-Oct-2013.
This is a serious bug fix release after the previous 3.2.0 series, with
some additional new features. All who are using libmikmod-3.2.0 (or the
interim 3.3.1-beta) must upgrade to the new libmikmod-3.3.2 version.
THANKS
- Paul Spark <sparkynz74@gmail.com> for Microsoft Visual C 6.0 fixes.
- Ozkan Sezer: many changes.
NEW FEATURES
- New CMake build system.
- Updated configury, support for cross-compilation, support for building
in a separate directory, support latest autotools.
- New SDL driver - works both with SDL-1.2.x and with SDL2, supports
floating point output if compiled against SDL2.
- New OpenAL driver, originally suggested by 'kervala', with fixes and
updates and with floating point output support.
- The multi-platform SDL and OpenAL drivers, if they are compiled, have
priority over OS-specific hw drivers for MikMod_RegisterAllDrivers().
- New windows xaudio2 driver, originally suggested by 'honza.c', with
updates, xaudio2.8 support and with floating point output support.
- ALSA driver now supports only the contemporary ALSA 1.0.x versions.
All of the ancient ALSA 0.3.x-0.4.x code were removed.
- Floating point output mode support for ALSA, OSS, Direct Sound, WinMM
drivers and for WAV file writer.
- The pipe and stdout drivers are now configurable
- Raw file-writer now has the lowest priority among the file-writers.
- GCC elf and macho symbol visibility attributes now supported.
- Windows: dllexport/dllimport attributes work properly for MinGW[-w64],
as well as windows compilers. Static builds using MSVC, LCC, etc are
now named mikmod_static.lib. When compiling against static libmikmod,
MIKMOD_STATIC should be defined so that dllimport wouldn't be assumed.
BUGFIXES
- ALSA fixes from Fedora.
- ALSA fixes for "Write error: File descriptor in bad state" crashes,
e.g. RedHat bug #915121. Now works stable.
- ESD (esound) updates from Fedora. Add esd back to configury which was
removed in 3.2.0b3, now requiring >= 0.2.18.
- Minor OSS fixes.
- The NAS driver now actually compiles.
- 64 bit detection fixes.
- Fix BOOL type use all over the source.
- Several const correctness fixes.
- Fixes for CVE-2007-6720 and CVE-2009-0179.
- mmio: memreader fixes and updates.
- Fixes for access violations introduced in 3.2.0b3.
- Fixes for broken memory allocation wrappers introduced in 3.2.0b3.
- Fix MikMod_strerror() might read beyond end of a static array.
- Fix looping volume in Player_SetVolume(), based on an old patch by
Yi-Huang Han.
- XM loader now reads songlength amount of orders from the file and
then seeks to mh->headersize+60 (sf.net bug #10.)
- Fix "unclick" code to consider loop lengths shorter than 16: fixes
crashes seen with several xm files (sf.net bug #12, mpd bug #3425.)
- Mac OS X: new standalone makefile with cross-compilation support.
- DJGPP build fixes.
- Windows: fixes/updates, win64 fully supported. MinGW[-w64] fully
supported along with MSVC and LCC. new standalone MinGW makefile with
cross-compilation support.
- SIMD (AltiVec and SSE2) option is now disabled by default. Can be
enabled by --enable-simd configury option, similarly with cmake. (the
standalone makefiles or project files are added instructions on how to
enable the feature if required.)
- Many compiler warning fixes, other small cleanups.
