- Igor Novoseltsev brought a patch that introduced two new options to

  curl_easy_setopt: CURLOPT_USERNAME and CURLOPT_PASSWORD that sort of
  deprecates the good old CURLOPT_USERPWD since they allow applications to set
  the user name and password independently and perhaps more importantly allow
  both to contain colon(s) which CURLOPT_USERPWD doesn't fully support.

 - Changed the handling of read/write errors in Curl_perform() to allow a
   a fresh connection to be made in such cases and the request retransmitted.
