[syslog-ng] syslog-ng 3.3.7 RC1 (3.3.6.90) released

[Marvin Nipper]

As positive feedback and FYI:
I have this running on Solaris 10 x86, and compiled with these options:
--enable-spoof-source
--enable-dynamic-linking
--enable-tcp-wrapper=no
--localstatedir=/usr/local/syslog-ng
--enable-debug
(i.e. not using any back-end databases, or anything like that)

And, this compiled fine, and appears to be running fine at this point.

Hi!

As promised earlier, I prepared a release candidate for the upcoming
syslog-ng 3.3.7 release (due october 31), with the most pressing bugs
already fixed. Testing this release candidate and reporting any and all
issues found with it - be those regressions or anything else - would be
greatly appreciated!

The current state of the NEWS file is included below, and if anyone
wants to track how the release is progressing and what needs to be fixed
still before the final release, see the 3.3.7 target milestone on
bugzilla:

 https://bugzilla.balabit.com/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&target_milestone=3.3.7

The release is available from the following sources:

 GitHub

 The release is tagged as v3.3.6.90 on the official repository at

3.3.6.90 (3.3.7 RC1)
        Thu, 06 Sep 2012 14:00:00 +0200

        Bugfixes
        ========

        * The bundled ivykis has been updated to fix two bugs found
          after the 3.3.6 release was tagged:

          * Fixed a Solaris-specific issue relating to TCP sources
            [#190]

          * Fixed a spinlock issue, triggered on at least FreeBSD
            [#193]

        * The glob-based configuration file inclusion was fixed to
          behave similarly to including a whole directory, to include
          files alphabetically. [#191]

        * Fixed a crash when trying to display the available modules
          in debug mode. [#189]

        * Fixed the building of afsocket-notls, so that it is
          correctly built without TLS support. [#188]

        * Fix compilation without spoof-source. [#192]
