1.1 Note – Seventh Version

There's a new file cffi-additions.lisp. It contains some stuff that was defined in cffi-grovel.lisp but never used there. It also contains code to detect the presence and version of glibc, for writing portable code.

Jolby from #lisp contributed code that fixed a problem with strerror() under glibc 2.3.2, as well as fixing a general bug in defforeign. This release incorporates it, conditionalized by a feature-specific test.

The basic sockets functions have all been tested and found to work when used in a low-level way. No higher-level code for them is actually in this release.
