29 - port to glibc-2.10 changes (strchr etc. returning const char *
30 in C++), based on patches by Milos Jakubicek and Oliver Mader.
31 - the binary search algorithm to find precomposed characters
32 was faulty, skipping some possible combinations (found by
33 Mikachu).
34 - new -letterspace option, patch by Mark H. Wilkinson.
35 - enable --mlock option for urxvt with frills on
36 systems supporting it (patch by Russell Harmon).
37 - urxvt did not compile without frills enabled
38 (analysed by Matthew Rosewarne).
39 - correctly reset the mbstate after an illegal
40 input sequence when handling terminal output (Emanuele Giaquinta).

42 refresh (reported by Mikachu).

44 recognized (http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
45 - better warning for x11 font encoding detection failures, also,
46 try to deduce encoding from both font properties and name
47 (adapted from http://achurch.org/patch-pile/).
48 - resizing the window with the scrollbar disabled via the escapes
49 sequence could make the window bigger again (Mikachu).
50 - make sure the alignment for fd passing control messages
51 is correct and work around some NetBSD issues (Taylor R Campbell).
52 - update to libptytty 1.3.
53 - replace maxosc-pastebin by a nicer version by Reza Jelveh, and move

56 - assertions in libev are now enabled depending on frills.
57 - update AnyEvent implementation to version 5.23 API.
58 - work around arrogant bsd idiocies again: netbsd spills the default
59 namespace with lots of symbols "for gnu/gcc compatibility" even
60 though neither of them does it, and then calls the rest of the world
61 in need of fixing. go figure.
62 - on_keyboard_command is on_user_command (patch by Michael Witten).
