The function is now called ngx_parse_http_time(), and can be used by
any code to parse HTTP-style date and time. In particular, it will be
used for OCSP stapling.
For compatibility, a macro to map ngx_http_parse_time() to the new name
provided for a while.
The r->request_body_no_buffering flag was introduced. It instructs
client request body reading code to avoid reading the whole body, and
to call post_handler early instead. The caller should use the
ngx_http_read_unbuffered_request_body() function to read remaining
parts of the body.
Upstream module is now able to use this mode, if configured with
the proxy_request_buffering directive.
If nginx was compiled without --with-http_ssl_module, but with some
other module which uses OpenSSL (e.g. --with-mail_ssl_module), insufficient
preprocessor check resulted in build failure. The problem was introduced
by e0a3714a36f8 (1.3.14).

Previously, only the first request in a connection was assigned the
configuration selected by SNI. All subsequent requests initially
used the default server's configuration, ignoring SNI, which was
wrong.
Now all subsequent requests in a connection will initially use the
configuration selected by SNI. This is done by storing a pointer
to configuration in http connection object. It points to default
server's configuration initially, but changed upon receipt of SNI.
(The request's configuration can be further refined when parsing
the request line and Host: header.)
This change was not made specific to SNI as it also allows slightly
faster access to configuration without the request object.
The "proxy_bind", "fastcgi_bind", "uwsgi_bind", "scgi_bind" and
"memcached_bind" directives are now inherited; inherited value
can be reset by the "off" parameter. Duplicate directives are
now detected. Parameter value can now contain variables.
*) Feature: now is possible to do several redirection using the
"error_page" directive.
*) Bugfix: the "dav_access" directive did not support three parameters.
*) Bugfix: the "error_page" directive did not changes the
"Content-Type" header line after the "X-Accel-Redirect" was used;
the bug had appeared in 0.3.58.
*) Feature: the "stub" parameter in the "include" SSI command.
*) Feature: the "block" SSI command.
*) Feature: the unicode2nginx script was added to contrib.
*) Bugfix: if a "root" was specified by variable only, then the root
was relative to a server prefix.
*) Bugfix: if the request contained "//" or "/./" and escaped symbols
after them, then the proxied request was sent unescaped.
*) Bugfix: the $r->headers_in("Cookie") of the ngx_http_perl_module now
returns all "Cookie" header lines.
*) Bugfix: a segmentation fault occurred if
"client_body_in_file_only on" was used and nginx switched to a next
upstream.
*) Bugfix: on some condition while reconfiguration character codes
inside the "charset_map" may be treated invalid; the bug had
appeared in 0.3.50.
*) Feature: nginx now logs the subrequest information to the error log.
*) Feature: the "proxy_next_upstream", "fastcgi_next_upstream", and
"memcached_next_upstream" directives support the "off" parameter.
*) Feature: the "debug_connection" directive supports the CIDR address
form.
*) Bugfix: if a response of proxied server or FastCGI server was
converted from UTF-8 or back, then it may be transferred incomplete.
*) Bugfix: the $upstream_response_time variable had the time of the
first request to a backend only.
*) Bugfix: nginx could not be built on amd64 platform; the bug had
appeared in 0.3.53.
