+
+7/21/99 (bug fix) Implemented modified socket driver for Windows that
+uses a thread to manage the socket event window. Code works the same
+on all supported versions of Windows and was based on original 8.1.0
+code. [Bug: 2178 2256 2259 2329 2323 2355] (redman)
+
+7/21/99 (new feature) Applied patch from Rolf Schroedter to add
+-pollinterval option to fconfigure for Windows serial ports. Allows
+the maxblocktime to be modified to control how often serial ports are
+checked for fileevents. Also added documentation for \\.\comX
+notation for opening serial ports on Windows. (redman)
+
+7/21/99 (bug fix) Changed APIs in stub tables to use "unsigned long"
+instead of the platform-specific "size_t", primarily after SunOS 4
+users could no longer compile. (redman)
+

+[Bug: 2427] (redman)

+
+7/22/99 (bug fix) Fixed running the safe.test test suite, one change
+to the Windows Makefile.in to fix paths and another in safe.test to

+
+7/22/99 (bug fix) Fixed hanging in new Win32 socket driver with
+threads enabled. (redman)
+
+7/26/99 (bug fix) Fixed terminating of helper threads by holding any
+mutexes from the primary thread while waiting for the helper thread to
+terminate. Fixes dual-CPU WinNT hangs, only one rare sporadic hang
+that still exists with dual-CPU WinNT. Also fixed test cases so that
+they would not depend as much on timing for dual-CPU WinNT. (redman)
+
+7/27/99 (bug fix) Some test suite cleanup. (jenn)
+
+7/29/99 (bug fix) Applied patch to fix typo in .SH NAME line in

+Njitmans. [Bug: 2445] (hobbs)

+8/1/99 (bug fix) Changed Windows socket driver to terminate threads
+by sending a message to the window rather than calling
+TerminateThread(), which seems to leak about 4k from the helper
+thread's stack space. (redman)
