Update to libwww-5.3.2. From the web page...

This  is a minor release that mainly provides bug fixes and small
enhancements that have been commited to  CVS  since the last release.
Vladimir Koslov provided indispensable help for testing and preparing the
Win32  release. Special thanks to Wayne Davison, Art Barstow, Peter
Stamfest, Zhu Qun-Ying, Jens Meggers, Ken Olum for their contributions.
 * Summary of principal changes (the ChangeLog provides a detailed account)
      + The  following  sample  applications  could  core  dump
        under Windows: head.c, getheaders.c, chunk.c, chunkbody.c,
        multichunk.c
      + When retrieving an object from the cache, the HTTP headers
        associated with the object weren't stored in the HTResponse object.
      + The cache garbage collector could go into an endless loop.
      + The HTResponse object now returns the HTTP reason.
      + Update of expat to version 19990728.
      + Optimization, enhancements, and bugs fixes to the HTRDF module
      + Some memory leaks and compiler warning fixes.
      + The robot could hang when accessing local files.
      + Optimization of the HTChunk and HTHash modules.
 * Outstanding bugs
      + The webbot crashes from time to time under Windows. It
        seems to be a problem while reading the robots.txt file,
        there the application frees a request that's still registred
        in the Windows async. loop.,
      + The tiny.c sample application doesn't prompt the user with
        a text input.
      + Interpretation of FD_CLOSE under Windows.
      + The  FTP  implementation  has  memory  leaks  and doesn't
        remember the path or authentication information correctly.
      + Compiling with -O2 and -Wall reveals some unitialized
        variables in HTDIR and HTFTP.
 * To do
      + Compile the answers to the libwww survey (volunteers are welcome).
