bump version
Sat Jun 02 01:58:15 2001 George Lebl <jirka@5z.com>
* configure.in: bump version
* auth.c, xdmcp.c, cookie.c: fix clobering of cookies with zeros, only
reget hostname on local displays, correctly setup authentication for
local xdmcp case. reset umask to sane gdm value after setting the
use auth
* gdm.c: cleanup, possible fd leak if there was a stale pid file
* server.c: handle memory errors in cookie setup
* slave.c: from xdm stole the idea of a bogus first client which
apparently fixes some things. Also actually close initial display
on xdmcp session end. Also make sure language is at least "C" if
we can't find any other language
* slave.c: SECURITY! when reinitializing the display for another go,
first bake new cookies
