Zero uninitialized bytes before writing compressed data.Packed/unpacked st_rdev transported as 32-bits on Solaris 64-bits.Simplified NTFS ACLs when group same as owner and same permission as world.Defended against reusing data from an invalid MFT record.Updated the read-only flag even when the security attribute was cached.Fixed the range of valid subauthority counts in a SID.Fixed returning the trimming count to fstrim().Fixed special case of decompressing a runlist.Alleviated constraints relative to reparse points.Fixed getting space for making an index non resident.Write as much data as possible in compressed attribute pwrite.Returned the size of locale encoded target as the size of symlinks.

Denied creating/removing files from $Extend.

Corrected validation of multi sector transfer protected records.

Fixed DISABLE_PLUGINS as the condition for not using plugins.

Allowed using the full library API on systems without extended attributes support.

Fixed compile error when building with libfuse vs.
