Technical notes on version 1.39
General:
+13Nov06
+kes Replace () by {} in configure.in for proper HP configuration.
+kes Shorten some lines over 80 characters in filed/backup.c
+kes Cast sizeof() in filed/backup.c to avoid compiler warning.
+Version 1.39.28 released:
+12Nov06
+kes Change error message 'illegal' to 'invalid' -- bug #707
+kes Add rather primitive device resource deadlock detection in
+ the job queue handler. It detects the same read and write device
+ for migration and cancels the job.
+kes Start adding a unique_dbid_hander() routine in migration to avoid
+ duplicate mediaids and duplicate jobids.
+kes Add patch from bug #708 to permit relative paths such as ../xxx
+ in the restore tree routine.
+kes Add Eric Bollengier's patch to reduce locking time in the SD after
+ despooling, and thus many jobs finish faster.
+kes Correct locking order of reservations lock and device mutex in
+ reserve.c -- this should correct Arno's deadlock that occurred
+ when doing mount/unmount at the same time a job is reserving a
+ drive.

doesn't contain any path separators AND there is no configuration
- file by that name in the current directory then the "standard"
