<li>Stop <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=skeyaudit&sektion=1">skeyaudit(1)</a> leaking file descriptors in -a mode, and be more paranoid about stdin, stdout and stderr.

<li>Add Doug Gwyn's portable <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=alloca&sektion=3">alloca(3)</a> on platforms for which no assembler version yet exists, and use instead of <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=gcc&sektion=1">gcc(1)</a>'s alloca().
