+
+2013-02-25 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>

+
+2013-02-20 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>

+
+2013-02-14 Harald Oehlmann <oehhar@users.sf.net>
+
+ * library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl: [Bug 3604576]: Catch missing registry

+ Bumped msgcat version to 1.5.1
+
+2013-02-11 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclZlib.c (ZlibTransformOutput): [Bug 3603553]: Ensure that
+ data gets written to the underlying stream by compressing transforms

+ was particularly likely to occur when compressing large quantities of
+ not-very-compressible data. Many thanks to Piera Poggio (vampiera) for
+ reporting.
+
+2013-02-09 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclOOBasic.c (TclOO_Object_VarName): [Bug 3603695]: Change
+ the way that the 'varname' method is implemented so that there are no
+ longer problems with interactions due to the resolver. Thanks to
+ Taylor Venable <tcvena@gmail.com> for identifying the problem.
+
+2013-02-08 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/regc_nfa.c (duptraverse): [Bug 3603557]: Increase the
+ maximum depth of recursion used when duplicating an automaton in
+ response to encountering a "wild" RE that hit the previous limit.
+ Allow the limit (DUPTRAVERSE_MAX_DEPTH) to be set by defining its
+ value in the Makefile. Problem reported by Jonathan Mills.
+
+2013-02-05 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * win/tclWinFile.c: [Bug 3603434]: Make sure TclpObjNormalizePath()
+ properly declares "a:/" to be normalized, even when no "A:" drive is
+ present on the system.
+
+2013-02-05 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclLoadNone.c (TclpLoadMemory): [Bug 3433012]: Added dummy
+ version of this function to use in the event that a platform thinks it
+ can load from memory but cannot actually do so due to it being
+ disabled at configuration time.
+
+2013-02-04 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileArraySetCmd): [Bug 3603163]: Stop
+ crash in weird case where [eval] is used to make [array set] get
+ confused about whether there is a local variable table or not. Thanks
+ to Poor Yorick for identifying a reproducible crashing case.
+
+2013-01-30 Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+ * library/platform/platform.tcl (::platform::LibcVersion): See
+ * library/platform/pkgIndex.tcl: [Bug 3599098]: Fixed the RE
+ * unix/Makefile.in: extracting the version to avoid issues with
+ * win/Makefile.in: recent changes to the glibc banner. Now targeting a
+ less variable part of the string. Bumped package to version 1.0.11.

+ * generic/tclCompCmdsSZ.c (TclCompileStringMatchCmd)
+ (TclCompileStringMapCmd): Improve the code generation in cases where
+ full compilation is impossible but a full ensemble invoke is provably
+ not necessary.
+
+2013-01-26 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * unix/tclUnixCompat.c: [Bug 3601804]: platformCPUID segmentation
+ fault on Darwin.
+
+2013-01-23 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * library/http/http.tcl (http::geturl): [Bug 2911139]: Do not do vwait
+ for connect to avoid reentrancy problems (except when operating
+ without a -command option). Internally, this means that all sockets
+ created by the http package will always be operated in asynchronous
+ mode.
+
+2013-01-21 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclInt.decls: Put back Tcl[GS]etStartupScript(Path|FileName)
+ in private stub table, so extensions using this (like Tk 8.4) will
+ continue to work in all Tcl 8.x versions. Extensions using this
+ still cannot be compiled against Tcl 8.6 headers.
+
+2013-01-18 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclPort.h: [Bug 3598300]: unix: tcl.h does not include
+ sys/stat.h
+
+2013-01-17 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclCompCmds.c (PushVarName): [Bug 3600328]: Added mechanism
+ for suppressing compilation of variables when we couldn't cope with
+ the results. Useful for some [array] subcommands.
+ * generic/tclEnsemble.c (CompileToCompiledCommand): Must restore the
+ compilation environment when a command compiler fails.
+
+2013-01-16 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclZlib.c (TclZlibInit): [Bug 3601086]: Register the config
+ info in the iso8859-1 encoding as that is guaranteed to be present.
+
+2013-01-16 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * Makefile.in: Allow win32 build with -DTCL_NO_DEPRECATED, just as
+ * generic/tcl.h: in the UNIX build. Define Tcl_EvalObj and
+ * generic/tclDecls.h: Tcl_GlobalEvalObj as macros, even when
+ * generic/tclBasic.c: TCL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, so Tk can benefit
+ from it too.
+
+2013-01-14 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * win/tcl.m4: More flexible search for win32 tclConfig.sh, backported
+ from TEA (not actually used in Tcl, only for Tk)
+
+2013-01-14 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclInt.decls: Put back Tcl_[GS]etStartupScript in internal
+ stub table, so extensions using this, compiled against 8.5 headers
+ still run in Tcl 8.6.
+
+2013-01-13 Alexandre Ferrieux <ferrieux@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+ * doc/fileevent.n: [Bug 3436609]: Clarify readable fileevent "false
+ positives" in the case of multibyte encodings/transforms.
+
+2013-01-13 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclIntDecls.h: If TCL_NO_DEPRECATED is defined, make sure
+ that TIP #139 functions all are taken from the public stub table, even
+ if the inclusion is through tclInt.h.
+
+2013-01-12 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclInt.decls: Put back TclBackgroundException in internal
+ stub table, so extensions using this, compiled against 8.5 headers
+ still run in Tcl 8.6.
+
+2013-01-09 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * library/http/http.tcl: [Bug 3599395]: http assumes status line is a
+ proper Tcl list.
+
+2013-01-08 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * win/tclWinFile.c: [Bug 3092089]: [file normalize] can remove path
+ components. [Bug 3587096]: win vista/7: "can't find init.tcl" when
+ called via junction without folder list access.
+
+2013-01-07 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclOOStubLib.c: Restrict the stub library to only use
+ * generic/tclTomMathStubLib.c: Tcl_PkgRequireEx, Tcl_ResetResult and
+ Tcl_AppendResult, not any other function. This puts least restrictions
+ on eventual Tcl 9 stubs re-organization, and it works on the widest
+ range of Tcl versions.
+
+2013-01-06 Jan Nijtmans <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+ * library/http/http.tcl: Don't depend on Spencer-specific regexp
+ * tests/env.test: syntax (/u and /U) any more in unrelated places.
+ * tests/exec.test:
+ Bump http package to 2.8.6.
+
+2013-01-04 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclEnsemble.c (CompileBasicNArgCommand): Added very simple
+ compiler (which just compiles to a normal invoke of the implementation
+ command) for many ensemble subcommands where we can prove that there
+ is no way for scripts to detect the difference even through error
+ handling or [info level]/[info frame]. This improves the code produced
+ from some ensembles (e.g., [info], [string]) to the point where the
+ ensemble is now not normally seen at the bytecode level at all.
+
+2013-01-04 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclInt.h: Insure that PURIFY builds cannot exploit the
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: Tcl stack to hide mem defects.
+
+2013-01-03 Donal K. Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+ * doc/fconfigure.n, doc/CrtChannel.3: Updated to reflect the fact that
+ the minimum buffer size is one byte, not ten. Identified by Schelte
+ Bron on the Tcler's Chat.
+
+ * generic/tclExecute.c (TEBCresume:INST_INVOKE_REPLACE):
+ * generic/tclEnsemble.c (TclCompileEnsemble): Added new mechanism to
+ allow for more efficient dispatch of non-bytecode-compiled subcommands
+ of bytecode-compiled ensembles. This can provide substantial speed
+ benefits in some cases.
+
+2013-01-02 Miguel Sofer <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+ * generic/tclEnsemble.c: Remove stray calls to Tcl_Alloc and friends:
+ * generic/tclExecute.c: the core should only use ckalloc to allow
+ * generic/tclIORTrans.c: MEM_DEBUG to work properly.
+ * generic/tclTomMathInterface.c:
