 <p>  <p>
   
 <ul>  <ul>
   <li>Do a better job when comparing dynamic addresses in <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>.
   <li>In <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a> AF macros, operate on the whole address (all 128 bits) unless AF_INET is set.
   <!-- ^ 20021102 -->
   <!-- ^ 20021101 -->
   <li>Fix <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=perl&sektion=1">perl(1)</a>'s MakeMaker so manpages get installed the way we like.
   <li>Plug a memory leak in IPv6 (ip6_output.c)
   <!-- ^ 20021031 -->
   <li>Make sure processes aren't added to the process list until they're completely initialised.
   <li>Implement some 4.3BSD emulation functions in terms of setresuid() etc.
   <li>Use the new setresuid() etc. calls for FreeBSD, HP-UX and Linux emulation of the same calls.
   <li>Implement <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=setresuid&sektion=2">[gs]etres[gu]id(2)</a> system calls. Minor version bump for libc and libc_r.
   <li>Many fixes to signal and fd handing under threads.
   <li>Fix <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a> interface expansion.
   <!-- ^ 20021030 -->
   <li>Better GRE output from <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=tcpdump&sektion=8">tcpdump(8)</a>.
   <li>New -U option to <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=chroot&sektion=8">chroot(8)</a> that sets the uid, gid and group vector from the password database.
   <li>To a chorus of approval, add the 'set require-order [yes|no]' option to <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf.conf&sektion=5">pf.conf(5)</a>.
   <!-- ^ 20021029 -->
   <li>Remove a bogus test in <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a> that stopped a perfectly legal seek on a character device.
   <li>Merge OpenSSL 2.2.18, fixing a cross-site scripting bug and two off-by-ones.
   <li>Add a missing break statement in <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=systrace&sektion=1">systrace(1)</a>'s arguments parsing code.
   <!-- ^ 20021028 -->
   <li>Add getdents64() support under Linux emulation.
   <li>Merge in Perl 5.8.0.
   <li>Have pool elements' sizes rounded up to the alignment passed to <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pool_init&sektion=9">pool_init(9)</a> instead of relying on the architecture's ALIGNBYTES value.
   <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=wi&sektion=4">wi(4)</a> can now do pointless-but-common WEP encryption in software for Prism and Symbol cards. Useful if your card doesn't do weak IV avoidance (or if you trust your BSD more than your hardware manufacturer,) and also serves as a framework for better wireless crypto protocols.
   <li>The installer unpacks siteXX.{tgz,tar.gz} files last so that site-specific tarballs always overwrite standard files.
   <li>Remove the error-prone and robustness-principle-defying 'flags X' (as opposed to 'flags X/Y') syntax from <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pf&sektion=4">pf(4)</a>
   <li>Be a little less 32-bit-centric in libcrypto.

   <li>Change <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=atoi&sektion=3">atoi(3)</a> to <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=strtoul&sektion=3">strtoul(3)</a> in <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=route6d&sektion=8">route6d(8)</a>.
   <!-- ^ 20021026 -->
   <li>Change a number of header files so NULL is now defined as 0L instead of 0, and so is the same size as a pointer.
   <li>Add to <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=chroot&sektion=8">chroot(8)</a> the ability to set the uid, gid and group vector after doing the <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=chroot&sektion=2">chroot(2)</a> call.
   <li>Some additional paranoia added to <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=authpf&sektion=8">authpf(8)</a>.

   <!-- ^ 20021025 -->
   <li>Use <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=poll&sektion=2">poll(2)</a> instead of <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=select&sektion=2">select(2)</a> in <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ping6&sektion=8">ping6(8)</a>
   <li>More picky argument parsing in <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=traceroute6&sektion=8">traceroute6(8)</a> and <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ping6&sektion=8">ping6(8)</a>.
   <!-- ^ 20021024 -->

   <li>Lots of int -> u_long in <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=traceroute6&sektion=8">traceroute6(8)</a>.

   <li>Make <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=pfctl&sektion=8">pfctl(8)</a> apply the netmask to addresses right away, so bogus netmasks show up as munges network numbers in -v output.
