would someone kindly upload a new version of curl for me???


There is a new version of curl available, and I've got new packages
ready for cygwin. Could someone upload them please? They are at:

  http://curl.haxx.se/download/curl-7.9.3-1-cygwin.tar.bz2
-and-
  http://curl.haxx.se/download/curl-7.9.3-1-src-cygwin.tar.bz2

All you have to do is remove the "-cygwin" from the file name,
everything else is ready to go. There is no update to the hint file.

If you're curious, here's what's changed (from the curl release notice):


------------snip---------------------------------------------------
Curl and libcurl 7.9.3 is out! This is mainly a bugfix release, but 
there's also a few new nifty things added. The internals have also 
undergone a major restructure in preparations for future innovations.

Get curl 7.9.3 from http://curl.haxx.se/download.html. As usual, allow 
some time before the popular binary archives are up-to-date with this.

This release includes the following changes:

 o bufixed multipart formposts with non-existing files
 o builds with OpenSSL versions prior to 0.9.5 again
 o SSL session cache crashed when filled
 o improved timeouts with HTTPS
 o bugfixed the cookie engine and parser
 o HTTP code 204 is now treated properly
 o libcurl now provides the FTP response lines to the header callback
 o introduced a DNS lookup cache
 o 64bit-architecture fixes
 o bugfixed using proxy specified in an environment variable
 o made libcurl support FTP operations without any transfer
 o OpenSSL ENGINE support (read CHANGES for full details)
 o CURLFORM_CONTENTHEADER let's you add headers in form posts
 o error messages are now stored without newlines
 o -T file names get the path stripped before used remotely
 o minor compiling problems fixed for some platforms
--------end-snip---------------------------------------------------


Thanks,
