support configuration reloading.
+- Added userland support to the IKEv2 daemon for Extended Sequence Numbers
+ support coming with Linux 2.6.39. To enable ESN on a connection, add
+ the 'esn' keyword to the proposal. The default proposal uses 32-bit sequence
+ numbers only ('noesn'), and the same value is used if no ESN mode is
+ specified. To negotiate ESN support with the peer, include both, e.g.
+ esp=aes128-sha1-esn-noesn.
+
+- In addition to ESN, Linux 2.6.39 gained support for replay windows larger
+ than 32 packets. The new global strongswan.conf option 'charon.replay_window'
+ configures the size of the replay window, in packets.
