+2008-04-22, Version 4.2.7
+       * build system: Improved detection of several libraries, especially if
+         they are in non-standard paths.
+       * build system: Portability fixes: Automatically define "_REENTRANT"
+         if the libc expects it.
+       * collectd: Error and warning messages have been improved.
+       * collectd: Check for the BYTE_ORDER and BIG_ENDIAN defines before
+         using them.
+       * apache plugin: Allocate new memory when reading a webpage instead of
+         using a buffer of static size.
+       * exec plugin: Close (almost) all filedescriptors before exec(2)ing
+         the program.
+       * hddtemp plugin: Error and warning messages have been improved.
+       * sensors plugin: Fix sensor collection for some chip types.

+       * collectd: Improved error messages when parsing the configuration.
+       * sensors plugin: Fix temperature collection with libsensors4.
+       * unixsock plugin: Fix mixed input and output operation on streams.

+2008-03-04, Version 4.2.5
+       * 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.

+       * unixsock plugin: A bug in the unixsock plugin caused it not to set
+         the permission on the socket as documented in the manpage. Thanks to
