12.14.1 Bugs Fixed

• Term comparison now runs in constant C stack space.
• Virtual machine bugs.
• PO file compatibility bug.
• Memory management bugs.
• Memory and stack corruption on UNIX-like systems with large file number limit and many open files (systems with ulimit -n larger than FD_SETSIZE, i.e. larger than 1024).
• pred_spec_tree parse error.
• Module expansion of args shadowed by do iterators.
• Command line arguments with certain non-ASCII characters would prevent SICStus from initializing.
• ceiling/1, floor/1, round/1, truncate/1 now accept integers in addition to floats.
• statistics(garbage_collection,_) did not report the correct byte count.
• PrologBeans: one hook predicate was incorrectly declared dynamic.
• library(bdb): determinacy bugs.
• CLPFD:
  • table/[2,3]: bugs with inf/sup, copy_term/2.
  • geost/[2,3,4]: polymorphism with rules; volume/1 option.
• library(linda): The Linda server is now more robust against misbehaving clients. Especially on Windows the server would get a connection reset error if the client crashed.
• library(sockets): socket_select/7 would sometimes return with nothing selected even though it was called with infinite timeout (UNIX-like platforms only).
• Prolog Beans clients (both Java and .NET) would sometimes get an array index out of bounds error when more than ten concurrent sessions were active.
