20 Removed varargs.h and all dependencies, to avoid user compile errors
21
22 Fixed some short int / int compiler warnings in va_arg() usage
23
24 Fixed some gcc built-in compiler warnings
25
26 Changed autoconf support code from AC_RUN_ to AC_COMPILE_ to fix

31
32libtar 1.2.18 - 2012/08/02 (Chris Frey)
33-------------
34 Added more forgiving CRC checking logic when reading tar files
35
36 Note: If your application uses the macro th_crc_ok(), then to gain full
37 advantage of the changes in this version, you will need to recompile
38 your application against the new headers. Otherwise, the library is
39 drop-in replaceable, as usual.
