Changes for version 0.34 - 2002-02-24

  • -Corrected documentation type pointed out by Marcus Crafter <crafterm@osa.de>. Fix for JIFFIES_TO_MICROSECONDS potential int overflow on linux from Stephen Pillinger <S.M.Pillinger@cs.bham.ac.uk>. Patch for File::Find routine on AIX (broken POSIX?) from H.Merijn Brand <h.m.brand@hccnet.nl>. Big linux code cleanup patch from Anthony Higa <anthony@squareusa.com>; I *think* this also fixes the linux-ppc problem reported by Marcus Crafter.
