Hi all.

A new beta of mathopd-1.4 has been released. Get it while it's hot. :)

This version contains the mass-vhost code that was recently discussed
here. What happens is that you can now do things like

  Virtual {
    Anyhost
    Control {
      Alias /
      Location /home/www/*
    }
  }

In the above case, if a browser sends a Host header with 'www.an.example'
in it, the location gets automagically expanded to
'/home/www/www.an.example'

The * hack (for it is a hack) only works with 'real' aliases, not
userdirectories. I hope that is not too much of a problem.

The 1.4b19 release contains a fix for some rather stupid errors that crept
in during development of 1.4. Thanks to Erik Devriendt for pointing these
out.

Also the 1.4b19 version makes some attempts to avoid buffer overflows in
very weird circumstances. That code is not perfect yet, although it is
better than it was before.

The new code is at http://www.mathopd.org/dist/mathopd-1.4b19.tar.gz

Cheers
Michiel
