[tin-dev] [tin 2.6.3] snapshots

[Urs Janßen]

New snapshots available including the various patches to handle timeout
issue with active compression: -t cmd-line switch (interactive and batch
mode); prompting the user (interactive only)

updates the stpwatch.h macros (-DPROFILE) to no longer use ftime() but
clock_gettime() or gettimeofday() if available or do nothing if not.

valid_msgid() and damaged_id() should now be closer to the RFCs without
calling is*() ctype-functions (esp. valid_msgid() is called very often).

fixed an uncritical TOCTOU issue in read_newsrc()

-vvN / -vvM writes the skipped groups (unset batch_save) to the mailed
log
