 	- selection popup now shows selection in dec/hex/oct.
         - perl/selection: matching on unicode characters in the selection
           code was O(n²), which equals infinity in some degenerate cases
           :-> Matching is now done on UTF-8, which makes it almost instant.

           being interpreted in the locale urxvt was started.
+        - implemented override-redirect option and enabled it on menus,

+          (Emanuele Giaquinta).
