those below the working directory. (2) Add the --detail option to
"list". (3) Confirm before "drop --all". (4) Add the "help"
subcommand.
* Add an Admin/Access setting to change the number of octets of the
IP address that are saved in login cookies - allowing this setting
to be changed to zero
* Promote the "test-md5sum" command to "md5sum".

* Stop showing the server-code in status outputs - it is no longer used
for anything.
* Added a compile-time option (--with-tcl) to build in the full
TCL interpreter to augment TH1.
* Merged the JSON branch into trunk. Disabled by default. Enabled
by a compile-time option. Probably it will be enabled by default
in some future release.
* Update to use SQLite version 3.7.9 plus the alignment fix for Sparc.
