GNU Gatekeeper 4.2

I'm happy to announce the release of GNU Gatekeeper 4.2.

Version 4.2 is mainly a bug fix release.

A bug in proxying H.239 connections through NAT has been fixes as well
as a number of possible crashes and a few other small bugs.

The main functional change is that GnuGk's old NAT traversal method is
now disabled by default. Everybody should use H.460.x. If you want keep
using the old NAT traversal method, you can re-enable it with

[RoutedMode]
EnableGnuGkNATTraversal=1

[Endpoint]
EnableGnuGkNATTraversal=1

You can download the new version from
https://www.gnugk.org/h323download.html

Please see the full change log below.

Enjoy!
