op allows fine-grained control of access to super-user privileges
through easy-to-remember mnemonics. It features user- and host-based
access control, command expiration, netgroup support, drop-in
configuration files, and more.

rpl_malloc/rpl_realloc was added so that systems with dodgy implementations will link. This fixes compilation on HP-UX. If a 'help' parameter does not exist, the actual command to be run for the help is used. Detection for openlog() returning void was added.
autotools is now used. Trailing arguments are now expanded from the last numbered argument encountered. Usage of snprintf was fixed and fperms and fowners constraints were added. Logging is now less ugly. Build errors on AIX were fixed, and the basename of a fully qualified path is now used as the mnemonic.
A bug with the use of the DEFAULT section, strnprintf issues, and a wildcard constraint bug were fixed. An INSTALL file was added. The program now defaults to using Flex, as Lex has internal constraints. A default op.pam is now installed if /etc/pam.d exists. Environment variables can now be propagated into child environments even when "environment" is specified. This will override any existing variables. vsnprintf is now used. The preprocessor define was changed correspondingly, which may mean build scripts need to be changed.
The -l argument was added, which lists available
commands. A help="<help>" option was added,
which defines the help string displayed by -l. The
code was cleaned up a bit. Some list manipulation
code was factored out. The bug with variable
expansion inside quoted strings was fixed.
Configuration files in /etc/op.d are now sorted, so order is now deterministic. A "nolog" option that suppresses logging of successful command execution was added. Some bugs were fixed.
