+2009-05-09, Version 4.5.4
+       * Build system, various plugins: Many build fixes for FreeBSD,
+         OpenBSD, NetBSD, Solaris and Mac OS X. Big thanks to Doug MacEachern
+         for many fixes and providing a build system for many platforms,
+         Ulf Zimmermann for providing a FreeBSD system and Simon Kuhnle for
+         providing an OpenBSD system.
+       * collectd: Fix a potential race condition when creating directories.
+       * battery plugin: Don't complain about a missing directory every
+         interval.
+       * dns plugin: Slight portability fixes.
+       * exec plugin: Allow executed programs to close STDERR. Thanks to
+         Thorsten von Eicken for reporting this problem.
+       * irq plugin: Fix handling of overflowing 32-bit counters. Thanks to
+         Tomasz Pala for the patch.
+       * perl plugin: Portability build-fixes. Thanks to Doug MacEachern for
+         the patch.
+       * rrdtool plugin: Fix a possible race condition: If the network plugin
+         is initialized and dispatches a value before the rrdtool plugin is
+         initialized, the daemon may crash.
+       * memory plugin: Fix a potential problem under Solaris.
+
+2009-03-18, Version 4.6.2
+       * collectd: Some Solaris utility code has been improved.
+       * filter subsystem: Allow `Chains' without default targets.
+       * liboping: A patch to comply with strict aliasing rules has been
+         added.
+       * timediff match: Fix a typo: The match was registered with a wrong
+         name which prevented this match to be used as documented. Thanks to
+         Bruno Prémont for finding this problem.
+       * bind plugin: Fix collection of the cached RR sets. The number of RR
+         sets currently in the cache was collected as a counter value, which
+         is nonsense. Thanks to Bruno Prémont for implementing this.
+       * dns plugin: Don't pass NULL to `pcap_open_live': Some systems,
+         primarily BSDs, don't take it well and crash.
+       * oracle plugin: Portability to 64 bit systems has been improved.
+       * postgresql plugin: The default configuration has been improved.
+       * rrdtool plugin: Fix a possible race condition: If the network plugin
+         is brought and dispatches a value before the rrdtool plugin is
+         initialized, the daemon may crash.

 2009-02-22, Version 4.6.1
        * collectd: Many documentation fixes.
        * Collectd::Unixsock: Error handling has been improved.
