Changes in version 0.2.8.3-?? - 2016-05-??
xxx blurb goes here xxx
+ o Major bugfixes (security, directory authorities):
+ - Fix a crash and out-of-bounds write during authority voting, when
+ the list of relays includes duplicate ed25519 identity keys. Fixes
+ bug 19032; bugfix on 0.2.8.2-alpha.
o Major bugfixes (compilation):
- Correctly detect compiler flags on systems where _FORTIFY_SOURCE
is predefined. Previously, our use of -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE would
- cause a compiler warning, thereby making other checks fail.
- Fixes one case of bug 18841; bugfix on 0.2.3.17-beta. Patch from
- "trudokal".

o Major bugfixes (crypto, portability):
- - The SHA3 and SHAKE routines now produce the correct output on
- Big Endian systems, unbreaking the unit tests. No code calls
- either algorithm family yet, so this is primarily a build fix.

o Major bugfixes (directory mirrors):
- - Decide whether to advertise begindir support the same way we decide
- whether to advertise our DirPort. These decisions being out of sync
- led to surprising behavior like advertising begindir support when
- our hibernation config options made us not advertise a DirPort.
