Err

"To err is human"

Nothing much really to say on this one. The ports tree is still in slush as 7.1 and 6.4 are still pending release, but thankfully as thought, it doesn't affect ratbox updates. Which is nice.

The only really noteworthy thing in this quick update is the memory leak fix. Anyone having problems with the ircd gobbling up increasing amounts of RAM after it has been running for a while should consider upgrading.

Software changes included in this release:

  • Fix a leak that would cause the ircd to leak 128 bytes per connection.
  • A few minor cleanups of cases where malloc/free were used instead of rb_malloc/rb_free.
  • Keep people from passing absurd non-numeric values to --with-nicklen.
  • Have stats T report cumulative connection times as a 64bit integer and keep track of those values as a 64bit integer as well so they do not wrap.
