- Fixed last-chunk-detection for responses where the content was small
enough to be read with the body, causing Privoxy to wait for the

+ end of the content until the server closed the connection or the
+ request timed out. Reported by "Karsten" in #3028326.
- Responses with status code 204 weren't properly detected as body-less
- like RFC2616 mandates. Like the previous bug, this caused Privoxy
- to wait for the end of the content until the server closed the connection.
- Fixes #3022042 and #3025553, reported by a user with no visible name.
- Most likely also fixes a bunch of other AJAX-related problem reports

+- Fixed an ACL bug that made it impossible to build a blacklist.
+ Usually the ACL directives are used in a whitelist, which worked
+ as expected, but blacklisting is still useful for public proxies
+ where one only needs to deny known abusers access.
- Added LOG_LEVEL_RECEIVED to log the not-yet-parsed data read from the
network. This should make debugging various parsing issues a lot easier.
- The IPv6 code is enabled by default on Windows versions that support it.
where the test expected the alias.
- CGI interface improvements:
- - In finish_http_response(), continue to add the 'Connection: close'
- header if the client connection will not be kept alive.
- Anonymously pointed out in #2987454.
- - Apostrophes in block messages no longer cause parse errors
- when the blocked page is viewed with JavaScript enabled.
- Reported by dg1727 in #3062296.
- - Fix a bunch of anchors that used underscores instead of dashes.
- - Allow to keep the client connection alive after crunching the previous request.
- Already opened server connections can be kept alive, too.
- - In cgi_show_url_info(), don't forget to prefix URLs that only contain http:// or https:// in the path.
- Fixes #2975765 reported by Adam Piggott.
- - Show the 404 CGI page if cgi_send_user_manual() is called while
- local user manual delivery is disabled.
