+1.	Make configure test if the system glob routines support 
+	extended syntax (ALTDIRFUNC). If not, use the internal glob
+	routines instead of system ones. Thanks to Bernhard Sadlowski 
+	<sadlowsk@Mathematik.Uni-Bielefeld.DE> for reporting the bug
+	and helping me resolve this and other minor libc5 compiling
+	glitches.

+
+1.	Use lchown instead of chown, fixing a possible security problem 
+	when restoring symlinks (a malicious user could use this
+	to deliberately corrupt the ownership of important system files).
+	Thanks to Chris Siebenmann <cks@utcc.utoronto.ca> for detecting
+	this and providing the patch.

 1.	Put dump sources under CVS, added Id tags in all files so
 	one can use 'ident' on binary files.

 	contain them :(. Thanks to Eric Maisonobe <virnet@nat.fr>
 	for submitting the bug report.
 
+5.	Use ext2fs_llseek instead of llseek. With recent e2fsprogs
+	this should enable dumping big (huge) filesystems.
+
+6.	Added the RSH environment variable in order to be able to
+	use a rsh replacement like ssh when doing remote backups (and
+	bypass the security limitations of rcmd). Now you can do remote
+	backups without being root (or making dump setuid root).
+
+7.	Modified again the way dumpdates works. For incremental dumps,
+	we need to read dumpdates even if we are not using 'u' option.
+	Thanks to Bdale Garbee <bdale@gag.com> for his ideas on how
+	this should work.
