Subject: Patch for NCSA httpd 1.1
Content-Length: 1051

There is a slight bug in httpd 1.1 which will cause it to append an extra
linefeed to the beginning of a compressed document. Rather than save a fix
for 1.2, I'm just going update the distribution since I just put it out
yesterday.

If you already picked up a copy of httpd 1.1 and are using encoding, either
pick up another binary from /Web/ncsa_httpd/current/bin, or, if you're using
the source, apply the patch at the end of this message.

Sorry for the confusion.
