Doing a git show on that commit (still HEAD) and (case insensitive) searching the output for "diablo" returns only a handful of hits. Based on the if/then/else code in those hits, it appears xzver, diablo, and xfeature, are three variants of the same header-compression theme. Given the limited number of recent commits, depending on how far back your last update was, you can probably rebuild and test on my present version (f7ba64, obviously working here since I'm using it to post), which should be stable, then if interested in pursuing it further, git bisect from there to see what commit killed it for you. (Altho, I'd guess the commits labeled "intermediate", might not be usable, so you might want to skip them.) -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
