[ANN] unicorn 0.93.4 - *BSD stdio compatibility

E

Eric Wong

Unicorn is a HTTP server for Rack applications designed to only serve
fast clients on low-latency, high-bandwidth connections and take
advantage of features in Unix/Unix-like kernels. Slow clients should
only be served by placing a reverse proxy capable of fully buffering
both the the request and response in between Unicorn and slow clients.

Changes:

This release mainly works around BSD stdio compatibility issues
that affect at least FreeBSD and OS X. While this issues was
documented and fixed in [ruby-core:26300][1], no production
release of MRI 1.8 has it, and users typically upgrade MRI more
slowly than gems. This issue does NOT affect 1.9 users. Thanks
to Vadim Spivak for reporting and testing this issue and Andrey
Stikheev for the fix.

Additionally there are small documentation bits, one error
handling improvement, and one minor change that should improve
reliability of signal delivery.

Andrey Stikheev (1):
workaround FreeBSD/OSX IO bug for large uploads

Eric Wong (7):
DESIGN: address concerns about on-demand and thundering herd
README: alter reply conventions for the mailing list
configurator: stop testing for non-portable listens
KNOWN_ISSUES: document Rack gem issue w/Rails 2.3.2
stop continually resends signals during shutdowns
add news bodies to site NEWS.atom.xml
configurator: fix broken example in RDoc

Suraj N. Kurapati (1):
show configuration file path in errors instead of '(eval)'
