  This file lists all bug fixes, changes, etc., made since the AWK book
  was sent to the printers in August, 1987.
+ Oct 23, 2007:
+         minor fix in lib.c: increase inputFS to 100, change malloc
+         for fields to n+1.
+         fixed memory fault caused by out of order test in setsval.
+         thanks to david o'brien, freebsd, for both fixes.
+ May 1, 2007:
+         fiddle in makefile to fix for BSD make; thanks to igor sobrado.
+ Mar 31, 2007:
+         fixed some null pointer refs calling adjbuf.
+ Feb 21, 2007:
+         fixed a bug in matching the null RE in sub and gsub.  thanks to al aho
+         who actually did the fix (in b.c), and to wolfgang seeberg for finding
+         it and providing a very compact test case.
+         fixed quotation in b.c; thanks to Hal Pratt and the Princeton Dante
+         Project.
+         removed some no-effect asserts in run.c.
+         fiddled maketab.c to not complain about bison-generated values.
+         removed the obsolete -V argument; fixed --version to print the
+         version and exit.
+         fixed wording and an outright error in the usage message; thanks to igor
+         sobrado and jason mcintyre.
+         fixed a bug in -d that caused core dump if no program followed.
+ Jan 1, 2007:
+         dropped mac.code from makefile; there are few non-MacOSX
+         mac's these days.
+ Jan 17, 2006:
+         system() not flagged as unsafe in the unadvertised -safe option.
+         found it while enhancing tests before shipping the ;login: article.
+         practice what you preach.
+         removed the 9-years-obsolete -mr and -mf flags.
+         added -version and --version options.
+         core dump on linux with BEGIN {nextfile}, now fixed.
+         removed some #ifdef's in run.c and lex.c that appear to no
+         longer be necessary.
+ Apr 24, 2005:
+         modified lib.c so that values of $0 et al are preserved in the END
+         block, apparently as required by posix.  thanks to havard eidnes
+         for the report and code.
+ Jan 14, 2005:
+         fixed infinite loop in parsing, originally found by brian tsang.
+         thanks to arnold robbins for a suggestion that started me
+         rethinking it.
+ Dec 31, 2004:
+         prevent overflow of -f array in main, head off potential error in
+         call of SYNTAX(), test malloc return in lib.c, all with thanks to
+         todd miller.
  Dec 22, 2004:
          cranked up size of NCHARS; coverity thinks it can be overrun with
          smaller size, and i think that's right.  added some assertions to b.c
