Version 4.15, 2006.03.11, urgency: LOW:

* Release notes
  - There are a lot of new features in this version.  I recommend
    to test it well before upgrading your mission-critical systems.

* Bugfixes
  - Fix for pthreads on Solaris 10 (thx to Hans Werner Strube
    <strube at physik3.gwdg.de>).
  - Attempt to autodetect socklen_t type in configure script.
  - Default threading model changed to pthread for better portability.
  - DH parameters are not included in the certificate by default.

* New features sponsored by Software House http://www.swhouse.com/
