http://www.maxmind.com/download/geoip/api/c/GeoIP-1.4.4.tar.gz

ChangeLog:
        * Updated original geoipupdate to return "Invalid product ID or
        subscription expired"
        * Added BL/Saint Barthelemy, MF/Saint Martin (ISO-3166-1
        additions)
        * Check for illegal IP strings, return 0 if IP is not well
        formed IPv4 e.g. 1.2.3.4.5 and 1.2.3
        * Clarified that while core GeoIP library is LGPL,
        libGeoIPUpdate depends on md5.c and types.h which are GPL.
        * speedup the conversion from ipstring to ipnum in
        _GeoIP_addr_to_num. Doubles the speed of GEOIP_MEMORY_CACHE and
        GEOIP_MMAP_CACHE
        * Added new mmap shared memory caching option, GEOIP_MMAP_CACHE
        (Peter Shipley, LookSmart)
                - mmaps: our maps are shared, but we need only private
                readonly pages
