*) Bugfix: the segmentation fault occurred when the signal queue
overflowed if the "rtsig" method was used; the bug had appeared in
0.2.0.
*) Change: correct handling of the "\\", "\"", "\'", and "\$" pairs in
SSI.
*) The pid-file names used during online upgrade was changed and now is
not required a manual rename operation. The old master process adds
the ".oldbin" suffix to its pid-file and executes a new binary file.
The new master process creates usual pid-file without the ".newbin"
suffix. If the master process exits, then old master process renames
back its pid-file with the ".oldbin" suffix to the pid-file without
suffix.

"connections" directive; now the directive specifies maximum number
of connections, but not maximum socket descriptor number.

error, then nginx did not try do connect to them during 60 seconds.
*) Bugfix: in IMAP/POP3 command argument parsing.
Thanks to Rob Mueller.
*) Bugfix: errors while using SSL in IMAP/POP3 proxy.
*) Bugfix: errors while using SSI and gzipping.

from the 304 responses.

information did not logged in the error log.

when the "X-Accel-Redirect" was used.

SIGQUIT signal.

became shorter in the "ps" command.

'if expr="$NAME"' and "else" and "endif" commands. Only one nested
level is supported.

canceled and must be replaced with the proxy_set_header directive.
*) Change: the "proxy_preserve_host" is canceled and must be replaced
with the "proxy_set_header Host $host" and the "proxy_redirect off"
directives, the "proxy_set_header Host $host:$proxy_port" directive
and the appropriate proxy_redirect directives.
*) Change: the "proxy_set_x_real_ip" is canceled and must be replaced
with the "proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr" directive.
*) Change: the "proxy_add_x_forwarded_for" is canceled and must be
replaced with
the "proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for"
directive.
*) Change: the "proxy_set_x_url" is canceled and must be replaced with

*) Change: nginx now passes the invalid lines in a client request
headers or a backend response header.
*) Bugfix: if the backend did not transfer response for a long time and
the "send_timeout" was less than "proxy_read_timeout", then nginx
returned the 408 response.

invalid line in response header; the bug had appeared in 0.1.26.

"Expires" and "Cache-Control" headers.
*) Bugfix: nginx did not take into account trailing dot in "Host"
header line.
*) Bugfix: the ngx_http_auth_module did not work under Linux.
*) Bugfix: the rewrite directive worked incorrectly, if the arguments
were in a request.
*) Bugfix: nginx could not be built on MacOS X.
*) Bugfix: the ngx_http_stub_status_module showed incorrect statistics
if "rtsig" method was used or if several worker process ran on SMP.
*) Bugfix: nginx could not be built by the icc compiler on Linux or if

*) Bugfix: on Solaris and Linux there may be too many "recvmsg()
returned not enough data" alerts.
