 +(2005-04-04)
 +
 +General
 +-------
 +
 +* Added makefile targets to build static link versions of the library.
 +Both MinGW and MSVC. Please note that this does not imply any change
 +to the LGPL licensing, which still imposes psecific conditions on
 +distributing software that has been statically linked with this library.
 +
 +* There is a known bug in pthread_once(). Cancellation of the init_routine
 +exposes a potential starvation (i.e. deadlock) problem if a waiting thread
 +has a higher priority than the initting thread. This problem will be fixed
 +in version 3.0.0 of the library.
 +
 +Bugs fixed
 +----------
 +
 +* Fix integer overrun error in sem_timedwait().
 +Kevin Lussier
 +
 +* Fix preprocessor directives for static linking.
 +Dimitar Panayotov

 +
 +RELEASE 2.0.0
 +-------------
 +(2005-03-16)
 +
 +General
 +-------
 +
 +This release represents an ABI change and the DLL version naming has
 +incremented from 1 to 2, e.g. pthreadVC2.dll.
 +
 +Version 1.4.0 back-ports the new functionality included in this
 +release. Please distribute DLLs built from that version with updates
 +to applications built on pthreads-win32 version 1.x.x.
 +
 +The package naming has changed, replacing the snapshot date with 
 +the version number + descriptive information. E.g. this
 +release is "pthreads-w32-2-0-0-release".
 +
 +Bugs fixed
 +----------
 +
 +* pthread_setcancelstate() no longer checks for a pending
 +async cancel event if the library is using alertable async
 +cancel. See the README file (Prerequisites section) for info
 +on adding alertable async cancelation.
 +
 +New features
 +------------
 +
 +* pthread_once() now supports init_routine cancellability.
 +
 +New tests
 +---------
 +
 +* Agressively test pthread_once() init_routine cancellability.
