bogus anyway (see bugzilla #303) (Egbert Eich).
37. backing out 30.: the sleep() exists to bring the log message to the
attention of the user which points to a problem elsewhere. Therefore
the problem should be fixed where it originates. To be strict we could
make the function fail instead of just trying to point the user at the
problem (Egbert Eich).
10. Made use system supplied Expat and Freetype2 library the default on
Linux (documented in the release notes) (Bugzilla #218,#219) (Egbert
Eich).
9. Patched __AMD64__ flags to __amd64__ (Egbert Eich).
8. Added RELNOTES.XORG to collect bits for release notes for this release
(Egbert Eich).
7. Removed leftovers from libxml2 (Bugzilla #220)(Egbert Eich).
4. Reversed Xutf8* to XFree86utf8* function name changes for the release
(Egbert Eich).
3. Removed sources for patch which were included when patch had a bad bug
(Egbert Eich).
2. Removed unnecessary fonts (Egbert Eich).
1. Removed XIE and PEX extension files from release tree. The build
environment has been gone already (Egbert Eich).
been decided that the priority is to preserve the server's internal
API/ABI so that third-party drivers that depend on symbols like
noPanoramiXExtension, etc., would not need to be recompiled. Too bad
gcc on Linux doesn't support ELF's weak symbols as that would have been
a reasonable solution for preserving the ABI. N.B.: While symbols, i.e.
functions and variables revert to the old name, I did not revert build
names, i.e. -DXINERAMA, to the old -DPANORAMIX. There was no need, and
it's just a build issue that has no impact on the binary output of the
build.
Lanigan's xinerama tree on Sourceforge.Net. No attempt has been made to
handle previous, non-standard versions of the protocol. Nor has any
attempt been made to preserve the ABI of previous versions -- that part
will be added at a later time, and then probably only on systems that
have nice object/linker semantics, e.g. ELF systems with weak symbols.
