Curl and libcurl 7.9 is out! This is a minor-features-added release.

Get curl 7.9 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 SSL connect with a bad certificate now properly returns an error code
 o a minor redirect flaw was corrected
 o telnet is working on windows NT machines
 o curl_easy_duphandle() is a new libcurl function
 o --ciphers lets you specify which SSL ciphers to use (based on the new
   libcurl option CURLOPT_SSL_CIPHER_LIST)
 o displays certificate expire date with SSL and verbose output
 o -R uses the remote file's datestamp to set the local file's datestamp
 o generating stuff with libtool 1.4.1
 o -c is a new option that makes all cookies get written to the specified file
   (based on the new libcurl option CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR)
 o SSL session ID caching is being done for multiple requests to the same
   hosts
 o CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE can now be specified any number of times
 o fixed portability issue in the SSL code
 o -G improvements, now works with -I and on URLs including question mark.
 o various windows compile, build and makefile fixes
 o multiple curl_easy_perform() invokes when a previous invoke followed a
   Location: could lead to a crash
 o curl_formadd() is a new function to replace the now deprecated
   curl_formparse() one, for building rfc1867 form posts.
 o rfc1867-posts are now including the Expect: 100-continue header.
 o release archive now includes all docs as HTML pages too
 o flushes the progress meter stream to improve look on windows
 o fixed the configure script --with-ssl problem
