   BUG FIXES:
 
-    - ...
+    - Make sure that an inc-recursive transfer includes the right directory-
+      name prefixes for each dir.  This makes it impossible for a malicious
+      sender to use a just-sent symlink as a path in a transfer.
+    - Only skip set_modtime() on a transferred file if the time is exactly
+      right.
 
   ENHANCEMENTS:

     - Use usleep() for our msleep() function if it is available.
     - Added a few extra long-option names to rrsync script, which will make
       BackupPC happier.
