Re: [libmicrohttpd] Find a bug in libmicrohttpd-0.9.9 and provide the fix

[Christian Grothoff]

Hi!

0.9.9 is a rather old release at this point.  This bug has already been
fixed in one of the 25 releases that were published since then.  You
might want to update to a more recent version of your OS, if you can.


Happy hacking!
