[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: upx-1.24-1


I have uploaded version 1.24-1 of the "Ultimate Packager for eXecutables".

UPX is a free, portable, extendable, high-performance executable packer
for several different executable formats. It achieves an excellent
compression ratio and offers very fast decompression. Your executables
suffer no memory overhead or other drawbacks.
UPX is copyrighted software distributed under the terms of the GNU
General Public License, with special exceptions granting the free usage
for commercial programs as stated in the UPX License Agreement.
UPX uses the NRV compression library for compression services. A
compatible but somewhat less efficient OpenSource implementation is
available through the UCL compression library.
UPX aims to be Commercial Quality Freeware.
This version uses the UCL library.

Changes in 1.24 (07 Nov 2002)
   * INFO: http://upx.sourceforge.net is the permanent UPX home page
   * djgpp2/coff: stricter check of the COFF header to work around a
     problem with certain binutils versions

Changes in 1.23 (05 Sep 2002)
   * atari/tos: fixed an unpacking problem where a buffer was too
     small (introduced in 1.22)
   * linux/386: don't give up too early if a single block turns out
     to be incompressible
   * documentation: added some quick tips how to achieve the best
     compression ratio for the final release of your application
   * fixed a rare situation where the exit code was not set correctly

Changes in 1.22 (27 Jun 2002)
   * atari/tos: the stub now flushes the CPU cache to avoid
     problems on 68030+ machines
   * source code: additional compiler support for Borland C++ 5.5.1,
     Digital Mars C++ 8.28 and Watcom C++ 11.0c
