Now we have licence.pl, it seems to me to make very good sense to have
it generate the Halibut form(s) of the licence and copyright year as
well as the source-code forms.
As a result, I believe _no_ copies of the licence text or copyright
date exist any more except for the master one in LICENCE - so I can
completely remove the checklist section about all the places to update
it, because there's only one. Hooray!
TOOLTYPE_NONNETWORK (i.e. pterm) already has "-log" (as does Unix
PuTTY), so there's no sense suppressing the synonym "-sessionlog".
Undocumented lacunae that remain:
plink accepts -sessionlog, but does nothing with it. Arguably it should.
puttytel accepts -sshlog/-sshrawlog (and happily logs e.g. Telnet
negotiation, as does PuTTY proper).
This brings in the rest of the 0.66 branch, including some changes new
on master.
Conflicts:
doc/plink.but
sshrsa.c
(The conflicts were both trivial: in one, the addition of an extra
parameter to rsa2_newkey on master happened on the line next to 0.66's
addition of a check for NULL return value, and in the other, I'd got
the version number in the plink -h transcript messed up on master.)
The aim is to try to reduce the incidence of the two least helpful
classes of those reports: the ones which have just got mismatched
checksum files, and the ones which don't tell us the information that
would help.
(cherry picked from commit 8ff3b22243)
What should have been links to the old DSA keys were actually a second
copy of the links to the old RSA ones. Ahem.
(cherry picked from commit b62af0f40a)
This gives pride of place to the new set of keys we've recently
generated, and relegates the old ones to an afterthought.

Users have requested this from time to time, for distinguishing log
file names when there's more than one SSH server running on different
ports of the same host. Since we do take account of that possibility
in other areas (e.g. we cache host keys indexed by (host,port) rather
than just host), it doesn't seem unreasonable to do so here too.
(cherry picked from commit 0550943b51)
The validation end of XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 needs to check that two
time_t values differ by at most XDM_MAXSKEW, which it was doing by
subtracting them and passing the result to abs(). This provoked a
warning from OS X's clang, on the reasonable enough basis that the
value passed to abs was unsigned.
Fixed by using the (well defined) unsigned arithmetic wraparound: to
check that the mathematical difference of two unsigned numbers is in
the interval [-k,+k], compute their difference _plus k_ as an
unsigned, and check the result is in the interval [0,2k] by doing an
unsigned comparison against 2k.

PuTTY now uses the updated version of Diffie-Hellman group exchange,
except for a few old OpenSSH versions which Darren Tucker reports only
support the old version.
FIXME: this needs further work because the Bugs config panel has now
overflowed.

It would be rare to have a host keypair in .ppk format or on a client
machine to load into PuTTYgen, and it might confuse people into thinking
they are required to do so.
I don't think anyone has ever actually called it that, colloquially
_or_ formally, and if anyone ever did (in a bug report, say) I'd
probably have to stop and think to work out what they meant. It's
universally called Plink, and should be officially so as well :-)
