upgrade libev, fixing a bug in the select backend. + with more than 31 file descriptors on non-linux 64 bit systems. + - correctly reset the multibyte state to the initial one + after EILSEQ (patch by Neil Booth).

pre-8.4 slipwheeling behaviour has been reinstated, with + some minor improvements. + - streamlined x events processing to only flush once per + display and not once per terminal window. + - quite a bit of minor code cleanups and codesize optimisations. + +8.7 Sun Nov 25 10:23:49 CET 2007 + - update libev with an important bugfix that would cause crashes + when closing windows (when using rxvtd, and update is recommended). + - do not compile in the block builtin graphics with --disable-frills. + +8.6 Fri Nov 23 14:10:57 CET 2007 + -
