On SP initiated logout, the SP x509 certificate was included in the
HTTP redirect URL. First this was an SAML standard violation, and second
it inflated the URL beyond 2038 bytes, which is the maximum length for
IE7 and prior. As a result, SP initated single logout was broken with IE7
and prior versions.
From distribution NEWS file:
Many fixes and improvements to the ID-WSF 1 support, new API to load SSL keys
off memory, documentation for ID-WSF methods, general robustness and memory
leak fixes.
This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.
