BUG FIXES
---------

* Check all transactions in blocks after the last checkpoint (0.5.0 and 0.5.1 skipped checking ECDSA signatures during initial blockchain download).
* Cease locking memory used by non-sensitive information (this caused a huge performance hit on some platforms, especially noticable during initial blockchain download; this was not a security vulnerability).
* Fixed some address-handling deadlocks (client freezes).
* No longer accept inbound connections over the internet when Bitcoin is being used with Tor (identity leak).
* Re-enable SSL support for the JSON-RPC interface (it was unintentionally disabled for the 0.5.0 and 0.5.1 release Linux binaries).
* Use the correct base transaction fee of 0.0005 BTC for accepting transactions into mined blocks (since 0.4.0, it was incorrectly accepting 0.0001 BTC which was only meant to be relayed).
* Don't show "IP" for transactions which are not necessarily IP transactions.
* Add new DNS seeds (maintained by Pieter Wuille and Luke Dashjr).
