Hi!

This release includes some pending bug fixes and several new functions
and modules imported from various BSDs.

It also removes one instance of a hard-coded requirement for glibc, to
make it easier to use or port it to other libc:s around. Reports of
build failures or patches for ports to other libc:s more than welcome.

Of note is the omission of a reworked arc4random() switching it to
ChaCha. The idea is to include it during the 0.7.x series, but pushing
this release out now to not delay it even more.

Git tag: 0.7.0
