 * Cosmetic changes to PC Summary and Log file language strings from

+* BackupPC::Lib tries to be more careful when renaming the backups
+  file to backups.old.  There have been reports of backups being
+  empty, perhaps when the BackupPC data file system fills up.
+  Now backups is not renamed to backups.old if backups is empty.
+
+* BackupPC now closes stderr and stdout before renaming and
+  re-opening the log file.
+
+* Pre/post backup/restore/archive commands now correctly set
+  "type" to either incr/full/restore/archive, and now cmdType
+  is the type of Pre/post backup/restore/archive command.
+
+* BackupPC_archive correctly terminates archive processes on
+  alarm or cancel.
+
+* Updates to BackupPC_stnd.css with absolute font sizes instead
+  of relative.
+
+* BackupPC_dump now makes sure that the $Conf{FullAgeMax} check
+  also ensures the full backup is older than the maximum age
+  expected from $Conf{FullPeriod}.
