Pioneers 0.12.2

Hello all,

I've released Pioneers 0.12.2.
It is a bugfix release for 0.12.1.
When a player rejected trade, it was not shown. And the tournament timer
(most visible in games started from the meta server) worked in seconds
instead of minutes.

Regards,
Roland Clobus

Notes from the NEWS file:
* Removed double menu entries
* New feature: the moment of checking for victory can be influenced.
With thanks to Lalo Martins.
* Use scrollbars, so Pioneers will work correctly on smaller screens.
* Fixes for DoS that could stop the server.
* The computer player will not attempt to buy development cards when
none are available.
* Changed the order of distributing player numbers when (re)connecting.
* Fixes for the new OpenBSD port.
* All names of the computer players are unique. With thanks to
chrysn <at> users.sourceforge.net
* Easier selection of meta servers.
* Games created by the meta server will automatically add computer
players after a minute.

the game, and the timer will be reset when the last player leaves before
the time has elapsed.
* Fixed a crash that could occur after many trades.
* A new command line option to ./configure: '--enable-protocol=IPv4'.
When this is given (needed for the *BSD ports), only connections on IPv4
are made.
