Ahh, the heady days of 0.99 patchfiles

Now, not all projects can be as refined as Linux.  Before the final 1.0
release, we went through fifteen 0.99 patchfiles, and pl14 alone went
through subreleases 'a' through 'z'. Now _that_ is a release process.

Not to mention the odd-ball releases, like 0.96c+

Sadly, in this day and age of RPM's etc, we have silly limitations, and
I cannot call this release '0.99pl5a or some such awe-inspiring name
just because "rpmbuild" is such a party pooper.  So it's just 0.99.1.

Oh well.  Aspiring to such greatness as the Linux release numbering is
hubris anyway.  You can attain such perfection only once in your life.

[PATCH] Use sq_quote() to properly quote the parameter to call shell.

This tries to be more lenient to the users and stricter to the
attackers by quoting the input properly for shell safety,
instead of forbidding certain characters from the input.

Things to note:

 - We do not quote "prog" parameter (which comes from --exec).
   The user should know what he is doing.  --exec='echo foo'
   will supply the first two parameters to the resulting
   command, while --exec="'echo foo'" will give the first
   parameter, a single string with a space inside.

 - We do not care too much about leaking the sq_quote() output
   just before running exec().

[PATCH] Prevent t6000 series from dropping useless sed.script in t/

to be executed.  Unfortunately this was not documented, and the
common test library, t6000-lib.sh was named to match that
pattern.  This caused t6000-lib.sh to be called from Makefile as
the top-level program, causing it to leave t/sed.script file
behind.  Rename it to t6000lib.sh to prevent this, and document
the naming convention a bit more clearly.
