Patch 735 — Fix for Licpoll
When the license file contains a DEAMON line before SERVER line it failed to parse. Now the issue is
fixed.
Patch 722 — licpoll and flexpoller have higher "uncounted licenses"
LicenceAnalyzer FLEX polling: Changed "uncounted licenses" from 1 to INT_MAX.

LiicenseAnalyzer non-FLEX license status: Now it includes server details for non-flex license
managers. This will make status monitor to output correct server name for non-flex LM.

LicenseAnalyzer FLEX license reservation:  When there is a RESERVATION entry, it fails to get some
license usage. This fix will let Licpoll ignore RESERVATION and get the correct license usage.

LicenseAnalyzer LUM: LUM offline usage was ignored. This has been fixed now.
Patch 708 — Updated FlexNet debug log collection binary to improve handlling of DST change
The flexlogcollector binary would not correctly mark DST changes in the data
output when collecting at above one hour intervals.
Patch 716 — Support for lmxendutil version v2.2
With this patch, licpoll supports lmxendutil version v2.2.

Because of compilation issues, the update is currently only on
the following platforms:

i686-redhat-linux
x86_64-unknown-linux
ia64-hp-hpux11.23
sparc-sun-solaris2.8
hppa2-hp-hpux11.23
Patch 714 — Make flexpoller ignore polling with incomplete data
When input from lmstat or other license status commands end prematurely without returning
an error code flexpoller would convert the incomplete data. This would in many cases result in a
file with parsing error artifacts since lines are broken at random places.

This update make flexpoller skip the whole product when polling since data is used as
correction for flexlog and does not have to be high resolution input.
