+       * apache plugin: Improved initialization and error messages.
+       * exec plugin: Set supplementary group IDs.
+       * network plugin:
+         + Create separate threads for reading from the socket and parsing
+           and dispatching incoming packets. Versions prior to this may have
+           problems in high-load situations, where the socket receive buffers
+           overflows, resulting in gaps in the data.
+         + Use `memcpy' when constructing/parsing a package to avoid
+           alignment problems on weird architectures, such as Sparc.
+         + Translate doubles to/from the x86 byte representation to ensure
+           cross-platform compatibility.
+       * ping plugin: Correct the handling of the `TTL' setting.
+       * rrdtool plugin: Ensure correct handling of the `RRATimespan' option.
+       * swap plugin: Reapply a patch for Solaris.
+       * tcpconns plugin: Portability improvements.
