04/17
- replaced INTERNAL_TAPE_BLK_SIZE with bkpinfo->internal_tape_block_size

04/04/2004
- ps wax is now ps wwax

09/10/2003
- p75 is now p80 in outopening tape call
- negotiate largest buffer possible when opening tape drive
- fall back to dd if buffer fails

09/09
- better logging for tape users
- working on try_hard_to_fwrite(), try_hard_to_fread()
- replaced internal w/ EXTERNAL 'buffer' exe.

08/30
- tweaked error msgs in try_hard_to_fwrite()

08/02
- updated is_incoming_block_valid() to make it
  return end-of-tape if >300 flotsam blocks

05/02
- when logging tape errors, don't repeat self

04/24
- added lots of log_OS_error()'s and assert()'s

04/22
- copy_file_from_here_to_there() --- added a bit of fault tolerance;
  if write fails, retry a few times before reporting error

04/07/2003
- line 866 --- set block_size used by internal buffer to 32768;
  was INTERNAL_TAPE_BLK_SIZE/2

10/01 - 11/30/2002
- is_incoming_block_valid() --- always make
  checksums %65536, just in case int size is
  odd (GRRR, ArkLinux)
- disabled rotor-related superfluous warnings
- added INTERNAL_TAPE_BLK_SIZE
- do_sem() now returns int explicitly
- changed internal_block_size
- some irregularities (e.g. bad 'type'-ing) found by Kylix; fixed by Hugo

09/01 - 09/30
- change 64k to TAPE_BLOCK_SIZE
- added internal_block_size; set it to TAPE_BLOCK_SIZE*2
- if data is flowing FROM tape TO hard disk then set the threshold to 10 (not 75)
- lots of multitape-related fixes
- finally caught & fixed the 'won't finish unzipping last bigfile' bug
- added WIFEXITED() after waitpid(), to improve multi-tape support

08/01 - 08/31
- trying to catch & stop 'won't finish unzipping last bigfile' bug by
  changing the copy_file_rom_here_to_there code
- changed % threshold from 95 back to 75
- don't insist on full 256K write of last block to tape
- if >25 secs go by & all data (AFAIK) has been copied thru by FIFO wrapper
  and g_tape_stream is _still_ not closed then shrug shoulders & pthread_exit
  anyway...
- change fprintf()'s to log_it()'s
- added a header+footer to each block as it is read/written to/from tape
  by copy_file_from_here_to_there
- wrote workaround to allow >2GB of archives w/buffering
- changed % threshold from 75 to 95
- added calls to set_signals(); 'buffer' was killing mondoarchive as
  it terminated
- cleaned up struct-passing, to improve reliability and eliminate
  some race conditions
- changed some forks to pthreads
- added some comments
- created libfifo{.c,.h,-EXT.h}
- copied core of 'buffer' here
- added some other, Mondo-specific functions
- hacked 'buffer' into user-friendliness
