The blobs archive and APPLY.txt are both conditional on there being
changed binary blobs, and dounix.sh removes them up front so a rerun
that finds none leaves neither behind. It did not remove their
.sha256 files, so those survived from the previous run.
A release operator staging by glob then signs and uploads checksums
for artifacts that no longer exist. #2214 added the APPLY.txt
checksum, which widened an existing gap on the blobs checksum.

dounix.sh already produced APPLY.txt when companion blobs ship, and
every release cut has been checksumming it by hand. Add the missing
sha256sum step (same blob-gate as BLOBS_FILE) and reword the closing
reminder so checksums and signatures cover the same artifact set.
Version bump across the three files that carry it: mux/include/_build.h
(MUX_VERSION, MUX_RELEASE_DATE) and OLD_BUILD/NEW_BUILD in dounix.sh and
dowin32.sh, which move 9->10 and 10->11 respectively.
CHANGES.md: close the 2.14.0.11 section that has been maintained through
the cycle, and add the client TCP_NODELAY work (#2204, #2205, #2206,
#2207) to Clients, which had #2196 for tf but not the other four native
clients. Recorded with the wire measurement rather than by inspection --
two segments before the fix, five after, and no observable difference on
loopback at all.
Build-only changes are left out of the changelog as they have been all
cycle (#2177, #2180, #2185, #2211).

Three defects, found while re-cutting 2.14.0.10 on Windows after #1967.
1. win32/TOC.src.patchable and win32/TOC.src.removed BOTH list six files:
src/ganl_adapter.cpp src/netaddr.cpp src/signals.cpp
src/sitemon.cpp src/telnet.cpp src/version.cpp
dowin32.sh copies the patchable list in, then runs clean_files over the
removed list, so the delete wins and they never ship. netmux.vcxproj
ships and requires all six. Verified against the DISTRIBUTED
mux-2.14.0.9.win32.src.zip: its netmux.vcxproj names 15 sources under
src/ and the archive contains 9 of them, so the win32 source
distribution has not been buildable since at least 2.14.0.9. This is
#1967's defect class with a different mechanism -- that was a file named
in no list, this is a file named in two contradictory ones -- and it hid
from that audit because the check was Makefile.am, which is the Unix
build system. On Windows the build system is the vcxproj.
2. ac6c24fef added a blank line to win32/TOC.src.removed and
unix/TOC.removed. dowin32.sh reads its lists with mapfile -t, which
preserves the empty element; "$dir/" exists, so clean_files ran
rm on the distribution root, plain rm refused with "Is a directory",
and set -e aborted the release having produced nothing. dounix.sh
iterates an unquoted $remove_files, where word splitting drops the empty
token, so the identical blank line is harmless there -- which is why it
merged green. Both files also lost their trailing newline; restored.
3. Neither script validated its lists. A contradicting or stale list
produces a wrong distribution SILENTLY: the archive is intact, so every
checksum and every GPG signature over it still verifies. #1967 put it
exactly right -- they prove the tarball is intact, not complete.
Adds a preflight to both scripts, run before anything is copied, asserting
two invariants and refusing to build otherwise:
removed n (patchable u unpatched) = 0
everything listed to ship exists in the tree
and a guard in dowin32.sh's clean_files so an empty entry can never again
be turned into an operation on the distribution root. The rm -rf variant
of that loop would not have refused.
Not automated here: the stronger check that every source the build system
names is present in the packaged output. It needs the built artifact and
is platform-specific, and it is the only one of the three that catches
either #1967's missing seven or this change's missing six. Run it against
the artifact.
Verified on Windows, 2.14.0.10 re-cut from the signed binaries:
netmux.vcxproj and every other project file -- 213 references, 0 missing
(was 6); lib/Makefile.am -- 24 sources, 0 missing; #1967's seven files all
present; orphaned lib/timeparser.cpp correctly removed; 8/8 checksums;
packaged netmux.exe/libmux.dll/engine.dll bit-identical to the
Authenticode-signed copies in game/bin. Negative control: reintroducing
one conflict makes the preflight name the file and exit 1.

The 2.14.0.10 draft was last refreshed on 2026-07-25 and had drifted:
it opened by claiming 155 merged changes in under two weeks. Rewritten
against the full range since Build-2.14.0.9.
Version bumped in the three files the release process names:
mux/include/_build.h (2.14.0.10 / 2026-AUG-02), dounix.sh and
dowin32.sh (OLD_BUILD=9, NEW_BUILD=10). ALPHA stays defined.
CLAUDE.md gains the release model that was only ever oral tradition --
2.14 is a long alpha with no planned Beta, 2.13 is what live games run
-- and its _build.h path is corrected (it said mux/src/, the file is in
mux/include/).

2.14.0.9 is the first release to ship a binary artifact (rv64/softlib.rv64)
in the source distribution, which exposed a latent flaw: dounix.sh fed the
blob through diff -a into the text upgrade patch. That embeds NUL bytes and
relies on diff/patch round-tripping binary as text -- unportable (notably to
BSD patch) and silently fragile.
Rework the patch build so binaries are delivered reliably:
- Auto-detect binary files (NUL scan) among the patchable set and stash them
out of both trees before diffing, so the .patch is pure text with
conventional headers. A hard guard aborts the build if any NUL leaks in.
- Ship changed blobs whole in a companion mux-OLD-NEW.unix.blobs.tar.gz
(staged under the distribution dir name for in-place "tar xzf" overlay),
with an auditable APPLY.txt documenting the two-step upgrade. Only blobs
that actually changed are packaged.
- Add a build-time self-test: apply the generated patch to a fresh copy of
the previous release, overlay the blobs archive, and diff against the new
tree -- the build fails unless they match byte-for-byte.
Also general robustness: reference-dir/TOC/source preconditions with clear
errors, set -u, quoted paths, gzip -t / tar -t archive verification, and an
artifact summary noting the new companion archive must be GPG-signed too.
The full tarball is unchanged and still contains every file. dowin32.sh
(7z/zip patch format) is left for separate review.
