RELEASE_NOTES

For updated version, please see public git log.


0.9.9.6
 - Fix OS X builds and integrate Makefile.osx

 - Drop OpenMP from compiler flags

 - Add ffindex_posix_search.o to make clean

 - Avoid non-standard nested function, even so it's the cleanest solution,
   since the posix twalk interface is broken. Factor out functions using posix
   tree. Use TLS variables to stay threadsafe.

0.9.9.5
 - Make use of our parse_long for higher startup performance.

 - Add RELEASE_NOTES

 - Roll our own parse_ulong instead strtol for speed reasons.
