| earlier-util-init.patch | Move util_init back up the initialisation order doshell still doesn't work quite right if util_init hasn't been called. This is noticeable when trying to use AUTHINFO GENERIC. |

| thread-tree-stability.patch | thread tree stability (fixes broken tree navigation) If two articles have the same date but different subjects and different article numbers, and the article numbers compare in the opposite order to the subjects, it can be impossible to navigate to some places in trn4's thread tree. This is because the sibling ordering of the articles in the tree is not stable, but depends on the current article. So it can be that going "up" from B to its earlier sibling A causes (after rethreading etc.) A to be rethreaded after B, so now you would go "up" from A to B. If there are even earlier siblings, they can be unreachable (or at least difficult to reach). It is IMO a bug that the thread tree capriciously rearranges itself (at least, when all the articles are actually available etc. - there are a lot of good reasons why rearranging the thread tree might be necessary but it should be a convergent process and ideally should not depend on the current article). This patch fixes this particular rearrangement by extending the partial order (on articles) implied by their dates into a complete order by disambiguating on article number. This ensures that the articles, when rethreaded, are linked in in the same order each time. I have chosen a single-line formatting of the if's in the comparison function because IMO that makes the regularity easier to see. |

| longer-line-buffer.patch | Segfault whilst applying killfile to article with long header line This now reminds me of some investigations I did a few years back into a similar issue in inn's nntpget. I found that a small number of clients did not trim References headers when they grew past 1024 bytes, or perhaps trimmed before appending the new message-id rather than afterwards. Regardless, the number of articles with References headers > 1024 was non-zero, but few had them very much longer than that as most of these lengthy subthreads involved at least one person with a non-broken newsreader. I therefore think the attached patch should be more than adequate. Tested here and solves the problem on all the newsgroups I'm subscribed to that have long enough threads to cause this issue. |

| include-sys-ioctl.patch | Include <sys/ioctl.h> even if <sys/filio.h> exists We may need it for terminal ioctls such as TIOCGWINSZ. Fixes build on Debian GNU/kFreeBSD. |

| add-missing-includes-and-prototypes.patch | Add many missing #includes and prototypes This is pretty hacky in places (especially `term.h`), but it seems to be enough. |
