  Changes between 0.9.5a and 0.9.6  [xx XXX 2000]
 
+  *) Added more prefixes to parse for in the the strings written
+     through a logging bio, to cover all the levels that are available
+     through syslog.  The prefixes are now:
+
+       PANIC, EMERG, EMR       =>      LOG_EMERG
+       ALERT, ALR              =>      LOG_ALERT
+       CRIT, CRI               =>      LOG_CRIT
+       ERROR, ERR              =>      LOG_ERR
+       WARNING, WARN, WAR      =>      LOG_WARNING
+       NOTICE, NOTE, NOT       =>      LOG_NOTICE
+       INFO, INF               =>      LOG_INFO
+       DEBUG, DBG              =>      LOG_DEBUG
+
+     and as before, if none of those prefixes are present at the
+     beginning of the string, LOG_ERR is chosen.
+
+     On Win32, the LOG_* levels are mapped according to this:
+
+       LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR => EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE
+       LOG_WARNING                             => EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE
+       LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG         => EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE
+

   *) Made it possible to reconfigure with just the configuration
      argument "reconf" or "reconfigure".  The command line arguments
      are stored in Makefile.ssl in the variable CONFIGURE_ARGS,
