------------------------------------------------------------------------ Release 2010.2.0.0 Changelog: * A bug which caused forking large processes to not terminate has been fixed. * Calling hSetEncoding will now set the encoding for both the read and write side of a Handle, rather than just the read side. * Using hReady and hWaitForInput on Handles created from Sockets will no longer block on Windows. * Some improvements have been made in when library functions do, and do not, block asynchronous exceptions. * A new flag -no-rtsopts flag allows you to disable parsing of +RTS ... options by the run-time system. In some use-cases, when a program can be run as another user, this can cause security problems. For example, myprog -tsomefile will overwrite somefile if the other user has permissions to do so. * ghc-pkg now ensures that the conf files it writes are UTF8. * TH: A bug in the kind parser has been fixed. * directory: System.Directory.doesFileExist on Unix-like OSes now correctly identifies various types of special file as files.
