+ releasing subsequently newly reserved volumes in doing a close().
+ This should possibly fix bugs #1032 and #1018.

+ of race conditions. This is a first step in fixing bug #1018.

+ that implements double quoting include names in conf files,

+ job that contains encrypted data. It fixes bug #1024.

+ --with-archivedir in configure.in This fixes the regression
+ test builds.

+ of Max Run Time exceeded when the job has not yet started.
+29Nov07
+ebl Apply Richard Mortimer patch that fixes #1016 when there are more than

+kes Correct typos in disk-changer.in
+25Nov07
+kes This patch fixes the status command to include the formating string for
+ JS_AttrInserting. It fixes bug #1021.
+kes This patch should fix the Mac OS X build problem on the latest
+ Darwin, where sys/types.h was not included correctly (apparently
+ due to a change in the Mac headers). The solution was to explicitly
+ ensure that it is defined for the ./configure.
+ This patch also has a rebuild of configure that includes the Debian
+ qt4 patch to check for qmake-qt4. This patch fixes bug #1020.
+kes This patch should ensure that queued messages to the console are
+ displayed as soon as possible. It should fix bug #1007, but has been
+ reported not to work.

+ maximum number of volumes in a Pool during the add command.
