-0.7.1 (?/?/2011):
------------------
+0.7.1 (3/21/2011):
+------------------
+
+- Added support for proper UTF-16LE partition names rather than the
+ "shortcut" that properly encoded only ASCII names. This support works
+ only in Linux, FreeBSD, and OS X, though, at least for the moment.
+ Although it's possible to compile this support into Windows when using
+ Visual C++, it doesn't seem to work properly. Since using this feature
+ would require distributing the ICU libraries with the Windows binary,
+ thus bloating the binary package's size to no effect, I've disabled it in
+ my standard Windows build, at least for now.
+
+- Added check to fixparts to keep it from operating on devices that
+ lack an existing MBR signature. (In 0.7.0, it could write an empty
+ MBR data structure to a device on which it was mistakenly launched.)
- Fixed bug that caused the protective MBR to not be written when
restoring a backup of the GPT data.
