Time for 1.4.3?

I don't know if this has already been discussed on IRC, but I propose to start
releasing 1.4.3.

The current 1.4.x branch contains two fixes for svn crashes (both on Windows)
which based on the nr of emails we got on dev@ and users@ are frequently
encountered.

Looking at STATUS there are two major proposed changes with a -1 (rpm for
AuroraLinux and the GSSAPI/SSPI issue), the rest are relatively minor (in
comparison). I'll setup a Solaris VM tonight to test r22501.

I also noticed a commit to the 1.3.x branch, is there a need to release 1.3.3
too?

I'd like to see a 1.4.3 rolled soon.

The r22253 group, r22466, r22501, and possibly r22609 would be good
additions.  The r22346 group walks the line between bug fix and
feature, but I personally wouldn't be against including it.

I started looking into that, but am still getting setup to reproduce
the problem.  If anyone's futher along, I'm happy to step aside and
review a patch instead.

It would be nice to get a fix to the "JavaHL creates spurious $HOME/auth
directory" regression since 1.3.x done.

Anyone looking at that?

Max.

Yes, r22739.

This bug dates to r1, by the way, so it cannot be that serious.

Sounds fine to me, but I'd like to see some of the outstanding entries
in STATUS merged first, particularly the one allowing us to configure
against the current shipping version of Neon without aborting.

There's a potential for svn_stringbuf's to become unterminated when
their underlying buffer is reallocated (which occurs at least the first
time we append data to them).  On the one hand, that's quite important,
but on the other, we've not many complaints.  If we ever do 1.3.3, it's
good that this fix is in it, but I don't think we need to do it
desperately.
