Major changes between sudo 1.7.2p2 and 1.7.2p3:

 * Fix printing of entries with multiple host entries on a single line.

 * Fix use after free when sending error messages via email.

 * Use setrlimit64(), if available, instead of setrlimit() when
   setting AIX resource limits since rlim_t is 32bits.

 * Fix size arg when realloc()ing include stack.

 * Avoid a duplicate fclose() of the sudoers file.

Major changes between sudo 1.7.2p1 and 1.7.2p2:

 * Fixed a a bug where the negation operator in a Cmnd_List
   was not being honored.

 * Sudo no longer produces a parse error when #includedir references
   a directory that contains no valid filenames.

 * The sudo.man.pl and sudoers.man.pl files are now included in
   the distribution for people who wish to regenerate the man pages.

 * Fixed the emulation of krb5_get_init_creds_opt_alloc() for MIT kerberos.

 * When authenticating via PAM, set PAM_RUSER and PAM_RHOST early so
   they can be used during authentication.

Major changes between sudo 1.7.2 and 1.7.2p1:

 * Fixed the expansion of the %h escape in #include file names
   introduced in sudo 1.7.1.

Major changes between sudo 1.7.1 and 1.7.2:

 * A new #includedir directive is available in sudoers.  This can be
   used to implement an /etc/sudo.d directory.  Files in an includedir
   are not edited by visudo unless they contain a syntax error.

 * The -g option did not work properly when only setting the group
   (and not the user).  Also, in -l mode the wrong user was displayed
   for sudoers entries where only the group was allowed to be set.

 * Fixed a problem with the alias checking in visudo which
   could prevent visudo from exiting.

 * Sudo will now correctly parse the shell-style /etc/environment
   file format used by pam_env on Linux.

 * When doing password and group database lookups, sudo will only
   cache an entry by name or by id, depending on how the entry was
   looked up.  Previously, sudo would cache by both name and id
   from a single lookup, but this breaks sites that have multiple
   password or group database names that map to the same uid or
   gid.

 * User and group names in sudoers may now be enclosed in double
   quotes to avoid having to escape special characters.

 * BSM audit fixes when changing to a non-root uid.

 * Experimental non-Unix group support.  Currently only works with
   Quest Authorization Services and allows Active Directory groups
   fixes for Minix-3.

 * For Netscape/Mozilla-derived LDAP SDKs the certificate and key
   paths may be specified as a directory or a file.  However, version
   5.0 of the SDK only appears to support using a directory (despite
   documentation to the contrary).  If SSL client initialization
   fails and the certificate or key paths look like they could be
   default file name, strip off the last path element and try again.

 * A setenv() compatibility fix for Linux systems, where a NULL
   value is treated the same as an empty string and the variable
   name is checked against the NULL pointer.
