Unicorn is an HTTP server for Rack applications designed to only serve  
fast clients on low-latency, high-bandwidth connections and take  
advantage of features in Unix/Unix-like kernels. Slow clients should  
only be served by placing a reverse proxy capable of fully buffering  
both the the request and response in between Unicorn and slow clients.

Changes:

We no longer unlinking actively listening sockets upon startup  
(but continue to unlink dead ones). This bug could trigger  
downtime and nginx failures if a user makes an error and  
attempts to start Unicorn while it is already running.

Thanks to Jordan Ritter for the detailed bug report leading to  
this fix.

There are also minor documentation and test updates pulled in  
from master. This is hopefully the last bugfix release of the  
1.1.x series.
