GetData 0.7.1 is known to compile and pass the test suite on the following systems (including C++ and Fortran bindings):

Linux:
* x86 and x86_64, using gcc 4.5 or icc 10.1, under Slackware, Fedora, Ubuntu, CentOS
* armv5tej, using gcc 3.3 under Debian
MacOS X:
* x86 and x86_64, using Xcode 3.2/gcc 4.2, under MacOS X Snow Leopard
Cygwin:
* x86_64, using gcc 4.3
Win32:
* x86_64, using mingw/gcc 4.5, under MSys

New in version 0.7.1:

  Library Changes

  * BUG FIX: When the parser fails in a gd_include() call, the internal list of
    conformant Standards Versions for the loaded dirfile is no longer corrupted.
  * BUG FIX Performing two consecutive reads of the same field in an ASCII
    encoded datasources no longer confuses GetData.
  * BUG FIX: Numerous memory leaks have been patched (mostly pin-holes, although
    there are a few, rare but egregious ones).

  API Changes:

  * The value(s) of a CONST or CARRAY field added with gd_[m]add() is now
    guaranteed to be zero; previously, it was unspecified.
  * BUG FIX: Specifying both GD_VERBOSE and GD_IGNORE_DUPS no longer results in
    spurious "Field code already defined" messages when duplicate fields are
    encountered.
  * BUG FIX: Calling gd_delete on a metafield no longer results in a segfault.

  Bindings Changes:

  * F77 BUG FIX: A memory leak in GDASCA has been fixed.
  * Python BUG FIX: The first element of a python list (instead of a NumPy
    array) is no longer dropped when passed to pygetdata on 64-bit systems.

  Utilities Changes:

  * dirfile2ascii now pads reads past the end-of-field.  The value used to
    pad may be specified with '-z', and defaults to 0/NaN.  Previously, the
    value of uninitialized memory was output.
  * BUG FIX: dirfile2ascii now does what the user intends when presented with
    cart-before-horse arguments, ie. "dirfile2ascii -e field DIRFILE".
    Previously this resulted in confusion.
  * BUG FIX: dirfile2ascii now accepts field conversion '-u', which was
    documented but overlooked in the argument parser.
