This release contains new H root server IPs for the upcoming change in
December 2015.  There are fixes for the 5011 tracking, and a feature
that makes it easier to test.  Algorithm rollover is made easier by
the new default for harden-algo-downgrade that is more lenient.


Features
- - Change default of harden-algo-downgrade to off. This is lenient for
  algorithm rollover.
- - Added permit-small-holddown config to debug fast 5011 rollover.
- - Allow certificate chain files to allow for intermediate certificates.
  (thanks Daniel Kahn Gillmor)
- - Enable ECDHE for servers. Where available, use
  SSL_CTX_set_ecdh_auto() for TLS-wrapped server configurations to
  enable ECDHE. Otherwise, manually offer curve p256. Client
  connections should automatically use ECDHE when available. (thanks
  Daniel Kahn Gillmor)
- - [bugzilla: 699] Feature --enable-pie option to that builds PIE
  binary.
- - [bugzilla: 700] Feature --enable-relro-now option that enables full
  read-only relocation.
- - [bugzilla: 702] New IPs for for h.root-servers.net.

Bug Fixes
- - [bugzilla: 681] Fix setting forwarders with unbound-control forward
  implicitly turns on forward-first.
- - [bugzilla: 690] Fix that reload fails when so-reuseport is yes after
  changing num-threads.
- - please afl-gcc (llvm) for uninitialised variable warning.
- - Fix mktime in unbound-anchor not using UTC.
- - Fix 5011 anchor update timer after reload.
- - 5011 implementation does not insist on all algorithms, when harden-
  algo-downgrade is turned off.
- - Document in the manual more text about configuring locally served
  zones.
- - Document that local-zone nodefault matches exactly and transparent
  can be used to release a subzone.
- - [bugzilla: 694] Fix that configure script does not detect LibreSSL
  2.2.2
- - Fix deadlock for local data add and zone add when unbound-control
  list_local_data printout is interrupted.
- - [bugzilla: 697] Fix get PY_MAJOR_VERSION failure at configure for
  python 2.4 to 2.6.
- - changed windows setup compression to be more transparent.
- - Fix config globbed include chroot treatment, this fixes reload of
  globs (patch from Dag-Erling Smørgrav).
- - [bugzilla: 705] Fix ub_ctx_set_fwd() return value mishandled on
  windows.
- - Fix minor error in unbound.conf.5.in.
- - Fix unbound.conf(5) access-control description for precedence and
  default.
- - Fix unbound-control flush that does not succeed in removing data.
- - MAX_TARGET_COUNT increased to 64, to fix up sporadic resolution
  failures.
- - iana portlist update.


Best regards, Wouter
