[ANNOUNCE] haproxy 1.3.20

Hi all,

as indicated 2 days agao, here's haproxy 1.3.20 and 1.4-dev2. They fix the two following issues :

• risk of crash if some timeouts are not configured. This bug is a regression introduced in 1.3.19 when fixing the timer drift. You're not at risk if you have timeouts set (ie: if you see no warning upon startup). But still it's easy enough to accidently get a risky configuration, so I encourage everyone to upgrade.
• option tcplog caused the global loggers to receive logs if no specific logger was declared. This has been fixed and a warning is emitted if either httplog or tcplog are set on a frontend without any logger. This fix will not be backported to 1.3.15.X because it is minor and the primary goal here is to only fix important issues and not to break any existing setup.

The two fixes are really light and I suggest the distro maintainers to upgrade, or at least to add the two patches to their current packages. I'm sorry for those who already did the packaging work, the nasty bug showed up exactly one week after the release :-/

Source, changelog and Linux/x86 binary for 1.3.20 are available here as usual :

My Sun has still not been unpacked so I still cannot provide the Solaris/sparc binaries.

For 1.4-dev2, I have not provided any binary, only sources :
