14 root 1.183 - work around incompatible ABI change between 1.22 and 1.24 by using a runtime check,

16 root 1.182 - include a japanese font (Mona, selected for license and size) with the distribution.
17     - include our own fonts.conf file, to speed up startup and to be able to control
18     font selection.

32 root 1.177 - correctly display face changes for inventory objects.
33 root 1.173 - verify databases if we are the first process to register, to

37 root 1.178 - reduce shimmering during smooth scrolls.
38 root 1.172 - rely on AnyEvent to work around totally broken windows vista

40     ports).
41     - use newer BDB version that works around windows vista tcp/ip
42     breakage.
43 root 1.173 - initialise the default resolver during startup, as windows vista
44     forces us back to the desktop when doing this later(!).

57     log the error, but do not crash, instead, ignore the failure).
58     - try to log, instead of crash, on the "cannot call update method"
59     problem.

194 elmex 1.62 - when the message window is hidden and the input is activated, it will
195     become visible again.
196     - the max number of paragraphs in the chattabs were not limited,

199     deep red :-)
200 elmex 1.60 - fixed a small inconvenience in the history handling of chat tab entries
201     (hitting cursor-up or cursor-down won't erase what you typed by accident
