   * New upstream release.
+    + Keith Packard attests, and Branden Robinson verified as far as he is
+      able, that no interface changes have been made since 2.1.2.
+    + Highlights of upstream changes:
+      - Change FC_CHARCELL and FC_MONO interpretation.  FC_MONO no longer
+        clips glyphs to charcell, you must specify FC_CHARCELL for that.
+      - Add support for FT_GlyphSlot_Embolden where it exists (which it
+        usually doesn't).
+      - Avoid crashing when using FT_Face objects.
+      - Deal with broken FreeType 2.1.7 BDF/PCF loaders by trying both
+        y_ppem/x_ppem and width/height values.
+      - Work with older versions of Fontconfig by using various pattern
+        elements only when defined.
+      - Change Freetype includes to new syntax.
+      - Search for nearest bitmap for bitmap-only fonts.
+      - Support fontconfig 2.2 release which doesn't include FC_HINT_STYLE.
