        with old build environments. Thanks to Kari Lempiainen 
        <kari@funky.pp.fi> for reporting the bug.
 
+3.     Fixed restore to correctly ignore sockets when comparing
+       a dump (as socket cannot be properly restored anyway). Thanks
+       to Gunther Reiszig <gunther@mit.edu> for reporting the bug.
+
+4.     Fixed restore to correctly access the archive file (-A argument)
+       even when using a remote tape. Thanks to Fabrice Bellet 
+       <fabrice@bellet.info> for reporting the bug.
+
+5.     Fixed (again) handling of long (largefile) seeks in rmt.
+       Thanks to Fabrice Bellet <fabrice@bellet.info> for reporting
+       the bug.
+
+6.     Fixed restore corner case when dealing with large block sizes
+       dump is able to write now (-b 1024). Thanks to Fabrice Bellet
+       <fabrice@bellet.info> for reporting the bug.
+
+7.     Fixed a bug preventing dump to access a filesystem having 
+       a label exactly 16 bytes in length. Thanks to <minduni@ti-edu.ch>
+       for reporting the bug.
+
+8.     Made dump store dump dates using explicit timezones, fixing a
+       problem with incremental dumps if the timezone is modified 
+       between the dumps. Thanks to Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org> for
+       the bug report and the patch.
+
+9.     Fixed a bug encountered when dumping individual files (not full
+       filesystems or directories) and dangling symbolic links happen
+       to be in the list of files. For as far as dump is concerned,
+       dangling symbolic links are allowed, and are dumped as is.
+       Thanks to Jin-su Ahn <jsahn@ee.snu.ac.kr> for reporting the
+       bug and providing the fix.
+
+10.    Fixed open and creation modes and permissions for QFA and
+       table-of-contents files in dump and restore. Thanks to 
+       Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org> for the patch.
+
+11.    Fixed the archive file descriptor handling enabling it to be 0.
+       This can happen in some cases when shell redirections are used.
+       Thanks to Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org> for the patch.
+
+12.    Delayed the opening of archive file until after suid had been
+       dropped (fixing a possible security issue if dump is suid). 
+       Thanks to Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org> for the patch.
+
+13.    Fixed the 'S' command handling in the rmt client part.
+       Thanks to Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org> for the patch.
+       
+14.    Modified the end-of-tape script handling to print out statistics
+       (and stop the timer) before launching the eot script. Also, the eot
+       script does not get run anymore when using -M (which makes sense) or
+       when multiple tapes are listed on the command line 
+       (-f tape0,tape1,tapen) (which also makes sense).
+       Thanks to Philippe Troin <phil@fifi.org> for the patch.
+
+15.    Relicensed dump/restore under the 'revised' BSD license, as per
+       ftp://ftp.cs.berkeley.edu/ucb/4bsd/README.Impt.License.Change.
+
+16.    Added LZO compression to dump. This new compression method has
+       the advantage of being super fast, thus not killing tape streaming
+       on slow machines. Thanks to Helmut Jarausch 
+       <jarausch@igpm.rwth-aachen.de> for the patch and to 
+       Markus Oberhumer <markus@oberhumer.com> for giving special permission
+       to include his miniLZO project (GPL licensed) in dump/restore.
