2^31 milliseconds is only about 25 days. Also clamps Sleep() to 10 years,
because it currently sleeps for 0 seconds when the sleep time would cross
2^31 seconds since the epoch. Hopefully boost will be fixed by 2028.
Introduce the following network rule:
* a block is not valid if it contains a transaction whose hash
already exists in the block chain, unless all that transaction's
outputs were already spent before said block.
Warning: this is effectively a network rule change, with potential
risk for forking the block chain. Leaving this unfixed carries the
same risk however, for attackers that can cause a reorganisation
in part of the network.
Thanks to Russell O'Connor and Ben Reeves.
* Fix sign error in calculation of seconds to sleep
* Do not mix GetTime() (seconds) and Sleep() (milliseconds)
* Do not sleep forever if walletlock() is called
* Do locking within critical section
* do not let vnThreadsRunning[1] go negative
* do not perform locking operations while vnThreadsRunning[1] is decreased
* check vnThreadsRunning[1] at exit
This fixes a potential bug where some NATs may replace the node's
interal IP with its external IP in version messages, causing
incorrect checksums when version messages begin being checksummed
on February 14, 2012.
Help users avoid insecure configurations a bit by recommending a
secure RPC password and increasing the incorrect password delay.
This may open up a RPC DOS for users with exposed RPC ports and
short passwords. Since users shouldn't have exposed RPC ports OR
short passwords, the DOS risk is preferable to the compromise
risk.
Also logs the client IP address for incorrect attempts.
Allow mining of min-difficulty blocks if 20 minutes have gone by without mining a regular-difficulty block.
Normal rules apply every 2016 blocks, though, so there may be a very-slow-to-confirm block at the difficulty-adjustment blocks.
Partial cherry pick of:
Compile with extra warnings turned on. And more makefile/code tidying up.
This turns on most gcc warnings, and removes some unused variables and other code that triggers warnings.
Exceptions are:
-Wno-sign-compare : triggered by lots of comparisons of signed integer to foo.size(), which is unsigned.
-Wno-char-subscripts : triggered by the convert-to-hex functions (I may fix this in a future commit).

Made three critical blocks for cs_mapAddresses smaller, and moved
writing to the database out of them. This should also improve the
concurrency of the code.
During the rushed transition from 0.01 BTC to 0.0005 BTC fees, we took the
approach of dropping the relay and block-inclusion fee to 0.0005 BTC
immediately, and only delayed adjusting the sending fee for the next release.
Afterward, the relay fee was lowered to 0.0001 BTC to avoid having the same
problem in the future. However, the block inclusion code was left setting
fForRelay to true! This fixes that, so the lower 0.0001 BTC allowance is (as
intended) only permitted for real relaying.
