In response to a number of requests for minor bugfixes, and until Mark
Habersack and I can figure out what is wrong with his CPU code that makes
it crash on my computer, here's a minorly updated version of DJVERIFY.
I would appreciate it if people would try it out on as many different
machines as possible, to see under what circumstances the CPU code crashes.
If anybody has a solution, that would be even better. :)
From "djverify.doc":
---=== VERSION CHANGES ===---
Version 0.32 alpha:
*Known bugs*
- The CPU detection code inexplicably crashes on certain 486 CPUs.
If you can figure out where the bug is, I'd gladly accept your help;
otherwise work is in progress on new CPU code.
*Bugfixes*
- Fixed a NULL pointer bug in pathname() that was triggered if any
DJGPP files weren't detected.
- Added a define to the makefile to eliminate use of the buggy CPU
code, so the other DJVERIFY features can be reliably tested.
- Certain correct installations erroneously triggered the DIAG_BADPROGS
error, specifically those that did not have an old 'go32.exe'.
Hopefully, this feature is working now, but to hedge my bets, I
changed the error to a warning. Please report any further erroneous
behavior.
