Squid-3.1 Nov Update

Right, new month. Current state of things...

***** Maintenance *****

The HEAD queue has a few ambiguous items I'm holding back from 3.1 for
answers or final polish...

squid.pid file location - Henrik: the original change intention was to
make it /var/run/squid.pid by default and with override configure option
(build AND runtime) where necessary. Can we agree on that and do it for
3.1+ please instead of keeping the old slightly broken placements?

STORE_META_OBJSIZE - Alex/Henrik - is this suitable for 3.1?

... the rest are bug-related.

***** RC blocker bugs: *****

===> 4 holdovers from 3.0

* 1956 : Ambiguous sourced CPU spikes. Need more info.

* 2697 : ICAP memory leaks on reconfigure (Alex? looking into
refcounting or something)

* 2802 : build errors on Solaris (gcc) - Kinkie

* 2736 : build errors on Solaris (SunStudio) - Kinkie

===> 12 new from 3.1

* 2619 : RAM growth due to unlimited adapted body data consumption

* 2604 : ICAP on/off settings ignored on reconfigure. - Alex

* 2311 : crashes on RESPMOD ICAP

* 2790 : comm assertion 2054 - FD closed by server on write.
* 2685 : comm assertion 2040/2038 - same as above but for the other
write assert.

* 2753 : IPv6/IPv4 failover not always happening with multiple IPs.
* 2640 : ... as above but for CONNECT requests specifically.

* 2706 : Date: header warnings.

* 2617 : performance issues on dstdomain with raw-IP. - Amos

* 2583 : "pure virtual method" - Alex

* 2581 : FTP directory listing failures.

* 2395 : FTP pages not output. - Amos
           remaining: PUT / POST results.

***** Other issues without formal bugs: *****
(these might be post-release additions if we need to)

* CVE-2009-0801
   Got most of the way through this now. Pending some polish and a lot
of detailed testing etc.

* OpenBSD / MacOSX missing split-stack support.
   I'm working on this using vobsd in the build-farm. Hopefully some
more progress will happen soon.

PS. Looks like we are over halfway toward having enough new features to
make _3.2_ worth branching. The count is large but the features smaller
thankfully.
