	Solaris by calling one A: and the other B:
	Add missing mbadblock LINK in Makefile.in
962705	Inserted missing newline character

952511	Fixed missing zero-terminator in autorenamed long names
	MTOOLS_SKIP_CHECK now implies MTOOLS_FAT_COMPATIBILITY.
952411	Fixed small quoted-printable-induced typo in the Makefile.
	<rant>
	Folks, please don't use quoted-printable. It sometimes changes
	the CONTENT of your messages. Even the MIME RFC's acknowledge this.
	Case in point: £400 gets transformed into =A3400, which looks
	like 3400 pounds to a person unaware of this MIME "feature".
	</rant>
952311	Mformat now puts a 12 bit FAT on ED to better match Messy DOS'
	behavior.
951511	Added ability to do mcopy e: to copy all files from the root

	Fixed YAHB (yet another hash table bug :) ) . Hope this one's
	the last.
	Centralizing most env-var handling.
	Update of the mtools manpage.
	Xdf is now optional, and only active if MTOOLS_USE_XDF is
	set. Saves a few milliseconds of startup time on non Xdf
	disks.
	Some lawyer-proofing, just in case :)
950611	Fast xdf code (finally!)
	Minor performance enhancements here and there.
	Names which are all lower case now generate a long name entry
	(according to Steve Searle, that's how Win'95 behaves).
952910	Character translation table fixes. Other name fixes.
952610	Put restrictions on long names to better match Win'95.
	(suggested by Steve Searle)
	Reworked autorename code. Catch SIGHUP signal

951609	v2.5.3 released (after lots of fixes)
950409	v2.5.2 released
950409	mdir.c: initialized "files" and "blocks" to avoid complaint by GCC
	mattrib.c: initialized "code" to avoid complaint by GCC
950409	Based on comments by Paul Slootman <paul@ahwau.ahold.nl>:
	init.c: fs_init(): initialized disk_size to 0.  The section
		which previously initialized this is ifdef'd out.  Why?
	Makefile, device.c: Passed ETCDIR (e.g. /etc or /etc/defaults)
		Gee, the Makefile is pretty ugly!  It might be good to start
		thinking about autoconfigure, or at least some cleanup.
	Makefile, mformat.c: use -DSOLARIS2, use srand48()/rand48()
	msdos.h, file.c, mdir.c: prefixed YEAR/MONTH/DAY/HOUR/MINUTE/
		SEC with DOS_ to avoid conflicts with <sys/time.h> on SVR4
	devices.c: use %i instead of %d to allow different bases
	parse.c: Changed comment for get_name()/get_path(); need to
		revisit this after deciding on default case behavior
	devices.c: load_devices(): fixed bad fprintf, line 748
	parse.c, mformat.c, misc.c: replaced expressions like
		  "if (islower(foo)) foo=toupper(foo)" with "foo=toupper(foo)"
		
952908 v2.5.1 released

952908 Based on comments by Martin Kraemer <Martin.Kraemer@mch.sni.de>:
		Bug fixes for compile errors and core dumps under SINIX-D 5.41
		(Siemens SVR4):
		plain_io.c
		mk_direntry.c
		vfat.h

952208 v2.5 released

952008 DCN	Change null-fill for unused remainder of VSE to 0xff fill for
		both upper and lower character (just one null for termination)
		This seems to better match Win95's behavior; Win95 had been
		complaining about bogus characters
		file_name.c: unicode_write()
