Major changes between sudo 1.8.8 and 1.8.9b1:
* Custom linked list and tail queues have been replaced with
BSD queue.h versions.
* Reworked sudo's main event loop to use a simple event subsystem
using poll(2) or select(2) as the back end.
* It is now possible to statically compile the sudoers plugin into
the sudo binary without disabling shared library support. The
sudo.conf file may still be used to configure other plugins.
* Sudo can be compiled again with a C preprocessor that does not
support variadic macros.
* Visudo can now export a sudoers file in JSON format.
* Portability fixes for Tru64 UNIX and HP-UX.
* Fixes bugs #621, #622, #623, #624
