BackupPC 2.1.0 pl1 (patch level1) released

I just released a set of patches for BackupPC 2.1.0.

The patches can be applied to a fresh 2.1.0 release
by downloading the single file BackupPC-2.1.0pl1.diff
from http://backuppc.sourceforge.net and following the
instructions in that file.  BackupPC should then be
re-installed from the fresh, patched, release.

The patched version is reported as "2.1.0pl1".

I've attached the list of issues fixed in the patch.
Most are minor.  The most significant fix is for a
bug in rsync xfers where $Conf{CompressLevel} is
turned on/off between backups.

BackupPC 2.1.0 pl1 ChangeLog:

* Added fix to lib/BackupPC/Lang/nl.pm from Lieven Bridts.

* Added patch from Tony Nelson to remove $Info{pid} before BackupPC
  writes the status and shuts down.

* Changed BackupPC_nightly so that it doesn't call find() if the
  directory doesn't exist.  This avoids errors in certain versions
  of perl.  Reported by Bernd Rilling.

* Fixed BackupPC::CGI::Lib to correctly re-load config.pl for mod_perl.
  Reported by Tony Nelson and Jimmy Liang.

* Explicitly untaint $In{host} in BackupPC::CGI::Lib to fix problem
  reported by Thomas Tempé.

* Added newline to "...skipping because of user requested delay..."
  log message in BackupPC_dump.  Reported by Wayne Scott.

* Added read file size error checking to BackupPC_tarCreate.
  Reported by Brandon Evans.

* Added check in BackupPC::Xfer::RsyncFileIO to ensure that when
  compression is toggled on/off, a compressed backup doesn't link
  to an uncompressed pool file (and an uncompressed backup doesn't
  link to a compressed pool file).  Reported by Brandon Evans.

* Updated documentation with new dirvish URL and a typo from
  Todd Curry.

* Fix to BackupPC_sendEmail so that it correctly sends admin emails
  for hosts that have failed backups.  Reported by Simon Kuhn.
