Log Message:
Changes 1.9.15:

  Format of .index files for 8-bit databases (not-ASCII and non-UTF8)
  has been changed. This makes `dictd' backward incompatible with
  8-bit dagabases built by earlier versions of `dictfmt', i.e.
  `dictd-1.9.15' and later doesn't work with 8-bit databases
  generated by dictfmt-1.9.14 and earlier. See ChangeLog for details.
  If you use 8-bit database, rebuild them using new `dictfmt' like this
  dictunformat db.index < db.dict | dictfmt -t --locale <locale> db-new

  dictd:
    - fixed: Function `dict_search_bmh' works incorrectly in utf-8 mode
        on non-GLIBC systems.
        As a result `suffix', `substring' and `word' strategies
        may work incorrectly with UTF-8 databases
        on such platforms (FreeBSD).

    - fixed: In dictd-1.9.8 support of CYGWIN was declared,
             but it was broken in later versions.
             dictd-1.9.15 can be succesfully built with CYGWIN.

    - fixed: `dictd' dies when client tries to obtain information
             about virtual database (SHOW INFO <virt_db>).

    - Every database specified in configuration file
        may have its own "default" search
        strategy (i.e. `.' strategy).
        For this purpose additional
        keyword `default_strategy' is implemented.
        See example2.conf sample file and dictd.8 for documentation.

    - When `-d' is applied,
        debugging information is printed to syslog (or log file or stderr).

        NOTE: `-dinit' option may show you a reason why dictd doesn't start.
              If you are in trouble, apply it first (and -L or -s of course)!

    - dictd works correctly even on platforms which do not support
        `iswalnum', `iswspace' and `towlower' functions.
        Dictd with utf-8 databases was slightly tested on FreeBSD4.{9,10}

    -fixed: logging is directed when --inetd is applied

    - `AC_FUNC_MMAP' is replaced for `AC_CHECK_FUNC(mmap)' in configure.in
      As a result `mmap/munmap' functions will be used on CYGWIN and INTERIX
      if they are present.
      If you dislike it, use --without-mmap option.

  dictdplugin_dbi plugin:
    - new options: `all_char' and `utf8'.
      `all_char' option is set to FALSE by default.
      `utf8' option is set to TRUE by default.
      Both are overrided by
      `00-database-allchars' and `00-database-utf8' special headwords.

  dictd/dict/... have been ported to Interix (MS SFU-3.0 and SFU-3.5).
       It works fine as Interix daemon
       with ASCII databases (tested on Interix 3.0 and 3.5)

       NOTE: GNU make is needed for building `dictd'

  dictfmt:
    - new option --default-strategy. See dictfmt(1).
