None.
- Improved some of the configure script internals.
- Added support for a.exe and other cc output forms for Windoze.
- The random() function on some architectures was calling
malloc() causing some recursion. I stuck in an old random
implementation that I had lying around as a replacement. Feel free to
point me to a good implementation online if the one I chose is
lacking.
None.
- Fixed some problems and improved code in the test utility
dmalloc_t. Dmalloc_t was not propagating error codes correctly and
some of the tests were giving false errors.
- Integrated an internal random number generator to stop recursion
with the random() function under some operating
systems.
- To facilitate building under Windoze, added support for a.exe and
