0.60.5

    Stable Release

    Bugfixes:
	* Fixed a race that could cause init to hang
	* Fixed init orphan process reaping 
	* Fixed init to always attempt to provide a controlling tty.
	    This should fix most cases where ash would print
	    "job control disabled" -- the other cases are user error.
	* Fixed 'gunzip -c' to not delete the source source file
	* Fixed a silly math problem in the time applet
	* Fixed 'cp -a' so it will once again copy symlinks properly 
	* Fixed a long standing problem in tftp with freeing memory
	* Fixed Makefile largefile settings
	* Fixed a buffer overflow in vi
	* Cosmetic cleanups in lsmod, lash, init, swapon/off, and hostname 
	* Set the close-on-exec flag on files opened by init
	* The updated top applet was backported from unstable
	* Several ash bugfixes were backported from unstable
	* Several warnings in ash, md5sum, and ifconfig

    Bugfixes:
	* Erik Andersen
	    -- Hacked together a new time applet
	    -- Fixed dangling comma in init.c (s390 arch only)
	    -- Fixed more so when it is run on files in the procfs that 
		claim 0 length, it will not do weird things i.e. more /proc/pci
	    -- Copyright message cleanups.  Fixed sash attributions.
	    -- Backporting of fixes and general maintenance.
	    -- Fixed several cases where reboot, halt, and poweroff would fail
		to function properly when Linux is booted into an initrd.
	    -- Fixed a silly compile bug in cpio
	    -- nslookup now works properly with uClibc, remove old workaround
	    -- Added conv=noerror support to dd
	    -- Fixed ash and msh cmdedit to properly account for the current 
		PATH setting
	    -- Document netcat options and add -e support
	    -- Fixed insanely broken insmod endianness handling
	    -- Update init.c for better syle conformance, properly detach from 
		terminal when necessary, better code reuse, FIFO inittab file 
		reading/executing, allow init to be halted and restarted, etc.
	    -- Allow gunzip to work on multiple archives, add -v option
	    -- Updated x86 optimizations to save over 10k.
	* Edward Betts
	    -- added -x switch to du.c
	* Cliff L. Biffle
	    -- Added memory usage to the ps listings
	* Przemyslaw Czerpak
	    -- Made telnet 8-bit clean, handle screen size, and is now RFC
		compliant.  Works nicely now. 
	* Wolfgang Denk
	    -- hush now supports shell loops (for, while, until) and control 
		operators (||, &&)
	* Russ Dill
	    -- Added an 'restart' inittab action, allowing init to re-exec
		itself (or call a script which calls pivot_root then exec...) 
	* Larry Doolittle
	    -- Made syslogd not give up when errno is EINTR
	* Geoffrey Espin
	    -- support find -newer <file>
	* Robert Griebl
	    -- Reworked modprobe so it now reads and uses modules.dep
	* Karl M. Hegbloom
	    -- Fixed a silly bug where CONTEXT and EGREP_ALIAS were coupled.
	* Kevin Hilman
	    -- Fixed memory corruption from long pathnames in /etc/fstab
	* J.W.Janssen
	    -- color ls support!
	* Matt Kraai
	    -- Fixed get_line_from_file() so that NULL is treated as end of 
		line, thereby fixing cut, grep, sed, etc. when working on binary
		files or anything that might contain a NULL.
	    -- Fixed wget to do DNS initial DNS lookups, and do that only once
		to avoid skipping to a different server when round-robin DNS is
		in use (bug found by Mike Coleman <[e-mail]>)
	    -- Several sed fixes
	    -- Added new losetup applet
	* Ben Low
	    -- allow tftp to work with stdin as well as stdout.
	* Frank P. MacLachlan <[e-mail]> avoid a potential 
		NULL pointer problem in mount.
	* Glenn McGrath
	    -- gunzip was incorrectly reporting a failed crc and length
		(Discovered by Change, Shu-Hao).  The problem was the bitbuffer
		needs to be unwound after decompression as it was eating into the
		crc/size field.
	    -- Reworked wc.c to fix severe efficiency problems and make it 
		smaller.  When just counting file chars, simply stat the file 
		instead of reading the whole thing.  (Fixes Debian bug #103302)
	    -- Updated dmalloc options
	* Manuel Novoa III
	    -- rewrote get_last_path_component() so it would not be so
		horrible, and would behave correctly in several important corner
		cases.
	* Vladimir Oleynik
	    -- Fixed ash problem where ^C could be blocked
	    -- Several command line editing updates (cmdedit now supports
		CTRL-K and CTRL-L,  fixed a segfault, etc)
	    -- Fixed ash problem where ^C could be blocked
	    -- Several size optimizations for various applets
	* Tim Riker
	    -- make ash prompt the same as other shells if cmdedit and
		fancyprompt are enabled.
	* Jeff Studer
	    -- tftp now generates default values for localfilename and
		remotefilename based on provided file names when possible.
	* Stefan Soucek and Miles Bader
	    -- Re-add mmu-less support to msh
	* Jim Treadway
	    -- Fixed a buffer overflow in the local group handling code.
	    -- Fixed a missing "\" in usage.h
	    -- Made pidof not add trailing spaces
	    -- Fixed msh bugs so things like "A = 1; B = `eval $A`; echo $B"
		can now work.
	* Mike Voytovich
	    -- insmod big endian ARM support

0.60.2

    Stable Release

	* Please support busybox and help us buy busybox.net.  See the
	    (current) busybox webpage for details.

    New Applets & New Features:
	* msh was reworked by Vladimir Oleynik's so it can handle things like
		for i in `ls *.c` ; do echo $i ; done
	    unfortunately, this also means that msh is no-longer uClinux safe,
	    and will require some surgery to make it use vfork() again.
	* Charles Steinkuehler <[e-mail]> -- reworked hostname
		so it behaves as expected (backport from busybox unstable)

    Known Problems
	none.  :)

    Bugfixes:
	* Erik Andersen
	    -- Fixed grep -E and egrep so they actually behave as expected
	    -- init cleanups and (theoretical) uClinux support
	    -- Fixed large file (>2Gig) support (enable in the Makefile)
	    -- Always enable test when a shell is enabled (least surprise)
	    -- Made 'mount -a' use proc to avoid a static noauto list
	    -- lots of source tree cleanups
	* Laurence Anderson
	    -- Removed some traces of no-longer existant rpmunpack (which
		has been obsoleted by the rpm2cpio applet).
	    -- Fixed unarchive.c to use the correct buffer when calling 
		dirname, improve an error message, and plug some memory leaks.
	    -- Fixed rpm2cpio.c mkfs_minix.c fsck_minix.c fbset.c to use
		standard types (s/u16/u_int16_t/g  s/u32/u_int32_t/g  etc)
	* ASA <[e-mail]> -- fixed ash handling of command line args 
	    when sourcing ('.') commands.
	* Ethan Benson <[e-mail]>
	    -- Fix mount's noauto option to not automount as "usbdevfs"
	* David Kimdon <[e-mail]> -- fixed md5sum binary sums
	* Matt Kraai
	    -- Fix sed s/[/]// handling (noted by Dumas Patrice).
	    -- Fix dirname(3) improper consts, allow libc version to override.
	    -- Fixed invoking applets when their names contain a leading dash 
		and a full pathname.
	    -- Fix ash exec
	    -- Fixed basename to be SUSv2 compliant (which specifies that the
		extension should stay if it is identical to the basename.
	    -- Fixed rmdir, since SuS2 says rmdir must provide -p
	    -- Fixed sed empty line substitutions (noted by Joshua Hudson).
	* Steve Merrifield <[e-mail]> -- make vi use xmalloc
	* Glenn McGrath
	    -- dpkg cleanups, various bugfixes
	* Vladimir Oleynik
	    -- Add support for `busybox --help APPLET'
	    -- Fixed route so it properly displays all route entries
	    -- Fix for ash leading redirections (i.e. '2>/dev/null ls rubbish')
	* Andrew Tipton <[e-mail]> -- enable vi cursor keys when in
		edit mode as vim does.

0.60.1

    Stable Release


    New Applets & New Features:
	none.  :)

    Known Problems (to be fixed in 0.60.2)
	* msh can segfault on constructs such as
		for i in `ls *.c` ; do echo $i ; done
	  due to a memory allocation problem.  This only seems to cause
	  problems when the backtick expands to be several k in size.


    Bugfixes:
	* Matt Kraai
	    -- Fixed msh to support underscores in variable names.
	    -- Fixed a sed problem with unsatisfied backrefs (the problem was
		noted by Martin Bene).
	    -- Removed BB_SH define entirely.  Now one simply picks the shell
		or shells they want as BB_<foo> in Config.h
	    -- Fixed head to use ferror(3) to check for errors, not errno.
	* Shu-Hao Chang <[e-mail]>
	    -- Fixed sed handling of multiple -e commands
	* Magick <[e-mail]>
	    -- Fixed an init bug with AskFirst and /dev/null
	* Jaspreet Singh <[e-mail]>
	    -- Fixed both a segfault and cosmetic bug in route
	* Erik Andersen
	    -- Made the insmod options BB_FEATURE_NEW_MODULE_INTERFACE and 
		BB_FEATURE_OLD_MODULE_INTERFACE mutually exclusive
	    -- xgetcwd.c now includes sys/param.h to ensure PATH_MAX is defined
	    -- Fixed a potential segfault with lash + BB_FEATURE_CLEAN_UP
	    -- Removed uint64_t from dos2unix, avoiding C lib compat. problems.
	* Glenn McGrath
	    -- Rewrite of tftp (commands match atftp, accepts -b, can use 
		non-standard ports, and is smaller).
	    -- Fixed unarchive exclude list handling
	* Manuel Novoa III
	    -- rewrite of simplify_path so it behaves itself (fixing some
		problems with mount and other applets).
	    -- Fixed ifconfig 'broadcast +' handling and disabled it by default
	* Matthias ? <[e-mail]>
	    -- Fixed syslogd to log all messages from a single connection, not
		just the first.
