Hi Cygwin friends and users,
I released Cygwin version 2.5.2-1. This is a plain bugfix release, plus a few assorted improvements under the hood. --------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 1: This is the first Cygwin release with the Cygwin DLL licensed under LGPLv3+. Please note that the GPLed tools in this package (e.g., cygserver, cygpath, regtool, etc) are still under plain GPLv3+. The same goes for the LSA authentication package cyglsa.dll and cyglsa64.dll. Only the DLL itself is no under LGPLv3+. --------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 2: Cygwin 2.5.2 is the last release supporting Windows XP and Windows Server 2003. --------------------------------------------------------------------- What changed: ------------- - select(2) now supports timeouts less than a Windows tick (10-16 ms). Bug Fixes --------- - Fix an error message depending on the system header inclusion order.
