Once again I offer you a fresh curl release. Curl and libcurl 7.7.1 is a
bugfix release that corrects a few more or less serious bugs.

Get curl 7.7.1 from http://curl.haxx.se/download.html. As usual, allow some
time before the popular binary archives are up-to-date with this.

This release includes the following fixes:

 o ftps:// support added, FTP over SSL for the control connection
 o the perl interface works again
 o bugfixed the HTTP/1.0 persistant connection support
 o passing a read-only URL to libcurl could make it crash on http redirects
 o HEAD responses are now always headers-only
 o curl could re-use connections a little too much
 o different treatment of HTTP error 302
 o following http redirects on persistant connections could reach the
   maxredirs amount accidentally
 o curl_escape() don't re-encode already encoded letters anymore
 o two crashes removed
 o Location: following bugfixed

This release would not have looked like this without help, reports and advice
from these friendly people:

 Mohamed Lrhazi, Colin Watson, Peter Bray, SM, nk, Edin Kadribasic, Jim Drash,
 Guenole Bescon, Georg Horn, Puneet Pawaia.
