Invalid lc/lp/pb options + made the function return LZMA_STREAM_END without encoding + anything instead of returning LZMA_OPTIONS_ERROR. + + - Windows / Visual Studio: Workaround a possible compiler bug + when targeting 32-bit x86 and compiling the CLMUL version of + the CRC64 code. The CLMUL code isn't enabled by the Windows + project files but it is in the CMake-based builds. + + * Build systems: + + - Windows-specific CMake changes: + + * Don't try to enable CLMUL CRC64 code if _mm_set_epi64x() + isn't available. This fixes CMake-based build with Visual + Studio 2013. + + * Created a workaround for a build failure with windres + from GNU binutils. It is used only when the C compiler + is GCC (not Clang). The workaround is incompatible + with llvm-windres, resulting in "XZx20Utils" instead + of "XZ Utils" in the resource file, but without the + workaround llvm-windres works correctly. See the + comment in CMakeLists.txt for details. + + * Included the resource files in the xz and xzdec build + rules. Building the command line tools is still + experimental but possible with MinGW-w64. + + - Visual Studio: Added stream_decoder_mt.c to the project + files. Now the threaded decompressor lzma_stream_decoder_mt() + gets built. CMake-based build wasn't affected. + + - Updated windows/INSTALL-MSVC.txt to mention that CMake-based + build is now the preferred method with Visual Studio. The + project files will probably be removed after 5.4.x releases. + + - Changes to #defines in config.h: + + * HAVE_DECL_CLOCK_MONOTONIC was replaced by + HAVE_CLOCK_MONOTONIC. The old macro was always defined + in configure-generated config.h to either 0 or 1. The + new macro is defined (to 1) only if the declaration of + CLOCK_MONOTONIC is available. This matches the way most + other config.h macros work and makes things simpler with + other build systems. + + * HAVE_DECL_PROGRAM_INVOCATION_NAME was replaced by + HAVE_PROGRAM_INVOCATION_NAME for the same reason. + + * Tests: + + - Fixed test script compatibility with ancient /bin/sh + versions. Now the five test_compress_* tests should + no longer fail on Solaris 10. + + - Added and refactored a few tests. + + * Translations: + + - Updated the Catalan and Esperanto translations. + + - Added Korean and Ukrainian man page translations. + + 5.4.0 (2022-12-13) This bumps the minor version of liblzma because new features were
