Changelog

 mini-httpd (1.30-16) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Modify all patches headers to specify being forwarded via email to upstream
     by me. Upstream has no official git or mailing list, so I established
     by convention Forwarded: not-needed (sent by email; upstream
     has no public tracker)
     Upstream is rather slow, I forwarded everything and confirmed they were
     received anyway.
   * Declare compliance with Standards-Version 4.7.3.
     (Removed Priority from control).
   * Add patch which fixes compilation warning in mini-httpd and htpasswd.
     Some of those, like silently ignoring the return code of getcwd and system
     could lead to an untraceable, broken program state. A minority I just
     pragma'ed away since modernizing the source there would have a greater
     risk of altering legacy behavior.
