• Major security fixes

Release Notes: Another stack overflow that was trivially exploitable to run arbitrary code was fixed. The Makefile.in was fixed so that "make install" does the right thing. Previously, it was not working properly and the examples would subsequently fail to build.

• Major security fixes

Release Notes: A couple of serious security issues have been reported recently which allowed a carefully-crafted chm file to result in a buffer overflow. This release fixes these problems. Anyone using an earlier release and reading chm files from untrusted sources should upgrade to 0.36.
