-*-changelog-*-

2.7.0.0  Nov 2013

        * New `forkProcessWithUnmask` function in the style of `forkIOWithUnmask`

        * Change `forkProcess` to inherit the exception masking state of its caller

        * Add new `Bool` flag to `ProcessStatus(Terminated)` constructor
        indicating whether a core dump occured

        * New functions in "System.Posix.Files(.ByteString)" for operating
        on high resolution file timestamps:

         + `setFdTimesHiRes :: Fd -> POSIXTime -> POSIXTime -> IO ()`
         + `setFileTimesHiRes :: FilePath -> POSIXTime -> POSIXTime -> IO ()`
         + `setSymbolicLinkTimesHiRes :: FilePath -> POSIXTime -> POSIXTime -> IO ()`
         + `touchFd :: Fd -> IO ()`
         + `touchSymbolicLink :: FilePath -> IO ()`

        * Export `SignalInfo(..)` and `SignalSpecificInfo(..)` as well as
        the two `Handler` constructors `CatchInfo` and `CatchInfoOnce`
        from "System.Posix.Signals".

        * Don't export `seekDirStream` and `tellDirStream` if the
        underlying `seekdir(3)`/`telldir(3)` system calls are not
        available (as on Android).

        * Fix library detection of `shm*` on openSUSE (#8350)

        * Minor documentation fixes/updates

        * Update package to `cabal-version >= 1.10` format

2.6.0.1  Jan 2013

        * Bundled with GHC 7.6.2
        * Fix memory corruption issue in `putEnv`
        * Use `pthread_kill(3)` instead of `raise(2)` on OS X too

2.6.0.0  Sep 2012

        * Bundled with GHC 7.6.1
        * New functions `mkdtemp` and `mkstemps` in "System.Posix.Temp"
        * New functions `setEnvironment` and `cleanEnv`
        * New functions `accessTimeHiRes`, `modificationTimeHiRes`, and
        `statusChangeTimeHiRes` for accessing high resolution timestamps
