Serf 1.3.6 [2014-06-09, from /tags/1.3.6, rxxxx]
Revert r2319 from serf 1.3.5: this change was making serf call handle_response
multiple times in case of an error response, leading to unexpected behavior.
* Fix issue 125: no reverse lookup during Negotiate authentication for proxies.
* Fix a crash caused by incorrect reuse of the ssltunnel CONNECT request
* Cancel request if response parsing failed + authn callback set
* Update the expired certificates in the test suite.
Upstream downgraded their shlib major version (at least on NetBSD).
Since there are so few packages in pkgsrc depending on it, follow suit.
Recursive revbump coming next.

Do not remove the socket from the pollset on pool cleanup.
Do not issue double close on skt w/second one being close(-1) (Issue 33)
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.

The serf library is a C-based HTTP client library built upon the Apache
Portable Runtime (APR) library. It multiplexes connections, running the
read/write communication asynchronously. Memory copies and transformations
are kept to a minimum to provide high performance operation.
