Changes with nginx 1.5.5 17 Sep  
2013

```
*) Change: now nginx assumes HTTP/1.0 by default if it is not able 

```

to  
detect protocol reliably.

```
*) Feature: the "disable_symlinks" directive now uses O_PATH on 

```

Linux.

```
*) Feature: now nginx uses EPOLLRDHUP events to detect premature
   connection close by clients if the "epoll" method is used.

*) Bugfix: in the "valid_referers" directive if the "server_names"
   parameter was used.

*) Bugfix: the $request_time variable did not work in nginx/Windows.

*) Bugfix: in the "image_filter" directive.
   Thanks to Lanshun Zhou.

*) Bugfix: OpenSSL 1.0.1f compatibility.
   Thanks to Piotr S..

Hi!

Since SSL\_OP\_MSIE\_SSLV2\_RSA\_PADDING is more than obsolete now, shouldn’t  
we remove it completely instead of just ifdef’ing it? At least in the  
1.5 branch?

Thanks!
