README: update release notes for 4.7

sys/poll.h is a glibc legacy alias for poll.h.
the latter is specified by POSIX, the former not.
on glibc one of them just includes the other so it doesnt hurt.

-ProxyChains ver 4.3 README
-==========================
+ProxyChains-NG ver 4.7 README
+=============================
 
   ProxyChains is a UNIX program, that hooks network-related libc functions
-  in dynamically linked programs via a preloaded DLL and redirects the
-  connections through SOCKS4a/5 or HTTP proxies.
+  in DYNAMICALLY LINKED programs via a preloaded DLL (dlsym(), LD_PRELOAD)
+  and redirects the connections through SOCKS4a/5 or HTTP proxies.
+  It supports TCP only (no UDP/ICMP etc).
+
+  The way it works is basically a HACK; so it is possible that it doesn't
+  work with your program, especially when it's a script, or starts 
+  numerous processes like background daemons or uses dlopen() to load
+  "modules" (bug in glibc dynlinker).
+  It should work with simple compiled (C/C++) dynamically linked programs
+  though.
+
+  If your program doesn't work with proxychains, consider using an 
+  iptables based solution instead; this is much more robust.
+
+  Supported Platforms: Linux, BSD, Mac.
+
 
 *********** ATTENTION ***********
 
-  this program works only on dynamically linked programs.
-  also both proxychains and the program to call must use
-  the same dynamic linker (i.e. same libc).
-  why ? because in order to hook to libc functions like
-  connect(), dynamic loader facilities are used, namely
-  dl_sym() and LD_PRELOAD.
+  this program can be used to circumvent censorship.
+  doing so can be VERY DANGEROUS in certain countries.
 
-*********************************
+  ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT PROXYCHAINS WORKS AS EXPECTED
+  BEFORE USING IT FOR ANYTHING SERIOUS.
+
+  this involves both the program and the proxy that you're going to
+  use.
+
+  for example, you can connect to some "what is my ip" service
+  like ifconfig.me to make sure that it's not using your real ip.
+
+  ONLY USE PROXYCHAINS IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING.
+
+  THE AUTHORS AND MAINTAINERS OF PROXYCHAINS DO NOT TAKE ANY 
+  RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY ABUSE OR MISUSE OF THIS SOFTWARE AND 
+  THE RESULTING CONSEQUENCES.
 
 *** Installation ***
 
   # needs a working C compiler, preferably gcc
-  ./configure
+  ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc
   make
   [optional] sudo make install
+  [optional] sudo make install-config (installs proxychains.conf)
 
   if you dont install, you can use proxychains from the build directory
   like this: ./proxychains4 -f src/proxychains.conf telnet google.com 80

 Changelog:
 ----------
 
+Version 4.7:
+- new round_robin chaintype by crazz.
+- fix bug with lazy allocation when GCC constructor was not used.
+- new configure flag --fat-binary to create a "fat" binary/library on OS X
+- return EBADF rather than EINTR in close hook. 
+  it's legal for a program to retry close() calls when they receive
+  EINTR, which could cause an infinite loop, as seen in chromium.
+
+Version 4.6:
+- some cosmetic fixes to Makefile, fix a bug when non-numeric ip was
+  user as proxy server address.
+Version 4.5:
+- hook close() to prevent OpenSSH from messing with internal infrastructure.
+  this caused ssh client to segfault when proxified.
+
+Version 4.4:
+- FreeBSD port
+- fixes some installation issues on Debian and Mac.
+
 Version 4.3:
 - fixes programs that do dns-lookups in child processes (fork()ed),
   like irssi. to achieve this, support for compilation without pthreads
@@ -78,10 +121,9 @@ Some cool features:
 	random order from the list ( user defined length of chain ).

 	dynamic order (smart exclude dead proxies from chain)
-* You can use it with any TCP client application, even network scanners
-	yes, yes - you can make portscan via proxy (or chained proxies)
-	for example with Nmap scanner by fyodor (www.insecire.org/nmap).
-	proxychains nmap -sT -PO -p 80 -iR  (find some webservers through proxy)
