[leafnode-list] leafnode-1.9.31.rc1 available -- to fix timeout issues

[Matthias Andree <matthias.andree@xxxxxx>]

Hi,

leafnode 1.9.31.rc1 is available, get it from
http://mandree.home.pages.de/

It should fix timeout and PCRE build issues and enhances portability to
systems without a real fork() function (AmigaOS).

Here's the NEWS since 1.9.30, the ChangeLog is below:

================================================================================
* 1.9.31, 2002-12-__

### BUGFIXES
- On non-BSD systems, only the first timeout was ever detected. Found and
  fixed by Richard van der Hoff.
- General signal handling fixes.
- Fix build when no system PCRE lib is available. Fix detection of
  -lpcre outside the system library path.
- When fetchnews is restarted after a crash that prevented updating the active
  file, only print one "..as 12345 in de.test" line per group when storing the
  article.
- Only fork() in fetchnews if fork() really works. Some systems (AmigaOS) only
  support vfork(), which is not sufficient.
