This fixes the bug I introduced in -53 which resulted in a non-functional Cygwin DLL when building optimized code. Sorry, guys. Since that's otherwise identical to -53, I kept the remainder of the -53 release announcement untouched. What's new in contrast to 1.7.0-52 =================================== - Recognize non-NTFS remote filesystems which report to be NTFS as "cifs" filesystems and avoid to call potentially unsupported NT call in readdir(). http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-06/msg01008.html Bugfixes: ========= - Don't just return EBUSY when trying to remove shared files on an NFS share. Rather, really try to remove them first. http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-07/msg00872.html - Fix a typo in setlocale() which made the GBK charset disfunctional. http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-07/msg00875.html - Partially fix the FIFO regression reported in http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-07/msg00233.html - Fix a crash when trying to set long console title strings. http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-07/msg00893.html - Lower the memory usage of file descriptor data on the Cygwin heap. This avoids to allocate 64K chunks per file. The new size is about 250 bytes + 4 * path length. This should fix the problem reported in http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-07/msg00766.html - Fix a problem in the destructor call order on process exit. http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-developers/2009-07/msg00000.html - Fix handling of incomplete UTF-8 sequences and rework UTF-16 surrogate pair handling in mbrtowc() to be more bullet-proof. Check for invalid Unicode valus beyond 0x10ffff. http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2009-07/msg00941.html FAQ: ==== - Q: How do I know that I'm running Cygwin 1.7.0-54? A: The `uname -v' command prints "2009-07-30 22:25" Have fun, Corinna *** CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO *** If you want to unsubscribe from the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the "List-Unsubscribe: " tag in the email header of this message.
