fixed.</para>

<para>A resource leak in the worker thread management code has
been fixed.</para>

<change type="bug" ref="1809">
<para>When connecting to a backend, Varnish will usually get the
address from a cache. When the cache is refreshed, existing
connections may end up with a reference to an address structure
which no longer exists, resulting in a crash. This race
condition has been somewhat mitigated, but not entirely
eliminated (see <ticket ref="144"/>.)</para>

<change type="bug" ref="1888">
<para>Varnish will now pass the correct protocol version in pipe
mode: the backend will get what the client sent, and vice
versa.</para>
</change>
<change type="bug" ref="2057,2077,2080,2086">
<para>The core of the pipe mode code has been rewritten to
increase robustness and eliminate spurious error messages when
either end closes the connection in a manner Varnish did not
anticipate.</para>

<change type="bug" ref="2181">
<para>A memory leak in the backend code has been plugged.</para>
</change>
<change type="bug" ref="2232">
<para>When using the <code>kqueue</code> acceptor, if a client
shuts down the request side of the connection (as many clients
do after sending their final request), it was possible for the
acceptor code to receive the <code>EOF</code> event and recycle
the session while the last request was still being serviced,
resulting in a assertion failure and a crash when the worker
thread later tried to delete the session. This should no longer
happen (see <ticket ref="162"/>.)</para>
</change>
<change type="bug" ref="2275">
<para>A mismatch between the recorded length of a cached object
and the amount of data actually present in cache for that object
can occasionally occur (see <ticket ref="167"/>.) This has been
partially fixed, but may still occur for error pages generated
by Varnish when a problem arises while retrieving an object from
the backend.</para>

<para>The <code>varnishncsa</code> tool can now daemonize and

<para>When <code>configure</code> was run without an explicit
prefix, Varnish's idea of the default state directory would be
garbage and a state directory would have to be specified
manually with <code>-n</code>. This has been corrected.</para>
