the branch copy of the checklist for 0.62 and forgetting things I only
added to the trunk version :-)

website _wasn't_ missing - I just looked straight past it somehow.
Fold the two versions together into one more complete than either.

- for 'ixion' read 'atreus' throughout
- the signature-checking commands needed minor modifications to cope
with more *sums files
- stated a few things explicitly which were previously implied, in
case the next inter-release gap is also long enough for me to
forget them.

to "winadj@putty.projects.tartarus.org" with SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_SUCCESS despite
probably having no idea what it means, treat this just the same as
SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE instead of killing the connection.
Tested only as far as making sure that winadj/FAILURE with a normal server
isn't _completely_ broken.

[this svn revision also touched putty-wishlist]
information about where to put items that aren't mentioned in the
saved configuration. So far the only nontrivial use I've made of this
facility is to default to placing KEX_RSA just above KEX_WARN in the
absence of any other information, which should fix
'ssh2-rsa-kex-pref'.
While I'm here I've rewritten wprefs() on general principles to remove
the needless length limit, since I was touching it anyway. The length
limit is still in gprefs (but I've lengthened it just in case).

code (as introduced in r9043), so that it uses the user SID rather
than the default SID.
This does change the access-control model, in that a Pageant running
with administrator privilege will now serve keys to an unprivileged
PuTTY running as the same user who started Pageant. Owen and I think
this isn't a problem (in particular, it will still not serve keys to a
_different_ user).
More importantly, making the Pageant client and server code work the
same way means that PuTTY and Pageant can still talk to each other
when UAC is turned off, which we've had several reports of r9043
having broken.

Currently, if the IPC exchange goes wrong, the Event Log just prints
"Pageant is running. Requesting keys." and then goes on to the next
step without ever saying what happened.
[originally from svn r9177]
SIGPIPE ignored in its child processes, leading to unexpected
behaviour inside pterms. (The gnome-session I'm sitting in front of
doesn't seem to do this as far as I can tell, but I don't doubt there
are some that do.) Add SIGPIPE to the list of signals we reset to
default behaviour before launching pterm's child process.

that we won't keep calling close_session() again the next time we go
round the message loop. Should fix unclean-close-hang. Thanks to Simon
Coleman for debugging.

of array indices. You'd hope that compilers could automatically turn
the one representation into the other if it was faster to do so, but
apparently not: even on gcc -O3, this source transformation gains over
15% performance.
[originally from svn r9105]
routines into their callers, where they'll be done once for a whole
modpow rather than many times within each multiply. Doesn't save much
time as far as I can see - perhaps a couple of percent, one second in
the minute it takes to run the new bignum test suite - but seems like
a sensible idea anyway on general principles.
[originally from svn r9103]
mostly so I can valgrind both and make sure they free all their
workspace - a memory leak in this code would be not merely an
inconvenience but a security hazard.
[originally from svn r9101]
fallback for when Montgomery is inapplicable.
(I may also at some point switch to using it for small exponents, if
speed testing should reveal that there's a noticeable threshold beyond
which preparing the Montgomery setup is uneconomical.)
[originally from svn r9099]
testdata/bignum.py is twice the size of the rest of the PuTTY source
put together, so I'm not checking it in.
This reveals bugs in the new multiplication code, which I have yet to
fix.

specified in the configuration. Jacob's userpass abstraction proves
its worth in making this a trivial job.
(Actually reported by a user - somebody's still using rlogin!)

exponentiation by replacing the modulo operation by a cleverly chosen
multiplication. This was not worth doing in the previous state of the
code (because my multiply was about as slow as my modulo), but now
that multiplication has been sped up by the Karatsuba optimisation,
Montgomery becomes worthwhile.
[originally from svn r9094]
setting BignumInt to 32 bits. gcc defines _LP64 on x86-64 and
presumably on other 64-bit architectures, so I've conditioned my
defines on that in the hope that they won't need redoing for the next
few such architectures.
I've also added a set for _LLP64, but it's untested as yet.

in saved sessions, so that a programmable window manager can
distinguish different PuTTYs/pterms on startup and assign them
different window management properties.

and avoiding trashing a non-default port, don't treat a port of 0 as special;
this was causing defaults to "freeze in" for sequences of clicks like SSH,
Raw, Telnet.
Arrange that a port of 0 (which in a backend indicates no default) is displayed
as a blank in the port box, to make this less jarring.
