Changelog for the c-ares project
* October 2 2007 (Daniel Stenberg)
+
- ares_strerror() segfaulted if the input error number was out of the currently
supported range.
+- Yang Tse: Avoid a segfault when generating a DNS "Transaction ID" in
+ internal function init_id_key() under low memory conditions.
+
* September 28 2007 (Daniel Stenberg)
- Bumped version to 1.5.0 for next release and soname bumped to 2 due to ABI
