20000121
	port: the gcc 2.95.2 -O2 optimizer can destroy parameters in a
		function that calls another function with a long long

	internal: sped up name handling in response.c.
20000223

		tnx Frank Tegtmeyer.
	version: DNScache 0.92, gamma.
20000314
	portability problem: the poll() emulation in RedHat 5.1 doesn't
		clear revents when select() returns 0. tnx Petr Novotny.
		impact: dns_transmit_get() never times out;
		dns_resolve() busy-loops. fix: clear revents before
		poll().
20000315

	ui: dnscache discards non-recursive queries.
	ui: *-conf use envdir in */run.
	internal: reorganized seed_addtime() calls in dnscache-conf.
	ui: tinydns-data prohibits PTR in generic records.

	version: djbdns 1.01.
20000922
	portability problem: Linux distributions use bash as /bin/sh;
		bash destroys $UID. dorks. impact: dnscache and axfrdns
		run as root. fix: envdir, then sh, then envuidgid. but
		/bin/sh really has to stop polluting the environment.
20000923

		answer section, and truncates the list after 8 records.

20010114
	internal: documented the tinydns data.cdb format.
	ui: tinydns-data, tinydns, tinydns-get, axfrdns support client
