Release Notes: This version fixes two possible crashes, one of them remotely triggered (CVE-2013-2175) involving use of a negative occurrence number in hdr_* fetches. Other long-standing improvements were finally merged, such as http-response, dynamic setting of priority, DSCP headers, Netfilter mark and log level, transparent proxy on *BSD, fetching of environment variables, conditional PROXY protocol by ACL, 3 parallel stick-counters instead of 2, reworking of the doc to simplify the search of ACL/fetch keywords, and further-improved configuration error reporting.
