+       + modify configure script to allow creating dll's for MinGW when
+         cross-compiling.
+       + add --enable-string-hacks option to control whether strlcat and
+         strlcpy may be used.  The same issue applies to OpenBSD's warnings
+         about snprintf, noting that this function is weakly standardized.
+       + add configure checks for strlcat, strlcpy and snprintf, to help
+         reduce bogus warnings with OpenBSD builds.
+       + build-fix for OpenBSD 4.9 to supply consistent intptr_t declaration
+         (cf:20111231)
+       + update config.guess, config.sub
+

        + correct CF_ETIP_DEFINES configure macro, making it exit properly on
          the first success (patch by Pierre Labastie).
