Well, grumble-mutter and all that.  Lars didn't include the new file in the 
tarball.  Here's the simple diff for those who want it:

7c7
< ;; Version: 1.3r
- ---
> ;; Version: 1.3s
40c40
< (defconst pop3-version "1.3r")
- ---
> (defconst pop3-version "1.3s")
149,150c149
<     (process-send-string process command)
<     (process-send-string process "\r\n")
- ---
>     (process-send-string process (concat command "\r\n"))

|   make-symbolic-link is not known to be defined.

Yep.

Binaries are base64 encoded, I think.  Either way, processing them is slow
largely due to size.
