- o Major features (portability):
- - Numerous changes, bugfixes, and workarounds from Nathan Freitas
- to help Tor build correctly for Android phones.
- - Port Tor to build and run correctly on Windows CE systems, using
- the wcecompat library. Contributed by Valerio Lupi.
-
o Major features and bugfixes (node selection):
- Revise and reconcile the meaning of the ExitNodes, EntryNodes,
ExcludeEntryNodes, ExcludeExitNodes, ExcludeNodes, and Strict*Nodes
- Improve log messages related to excluded nodes.
o Major features (misc):
+ - Numerous changes, bugfixes, and workarounds from Nathan Freitas

- The options SocksPort, ControlPort, and so on now all accept a
value "auto" that opens a socket on an OS-selected port. A
new ControlPortWriteToFile option tells Tor to write its
warning "-Wshorten-64-to-32" is available.
- Support compilation to target iPhone; patch from cjacker huang.
To build for iPhone, pass the --enable-iphone option to configure.
+ - Port Tor to build and run on Windows CE systems, using the wcecompat
+ library. Contributed by Valerio Lupi.
- Detect non-ASCII platforms (if any still exist) and refuse to
build there: some of our code assumes that 'A' is 65 and so on.
- Clear up some MIPSPro compiler warnings.
