- The mingw32 version uses mutex locks now which prevents
- log message corruption under load. As a side effect,
- the "no thread-safe PRNG" warning could be removed as well.
+ On most platforms, outgoing connections can be kept alive and
+ reused if the server supports it. Whether or not this improves
+ things depends on the connection.

+ When dropping privileges, membership in supplementary groups
