Release 1.12.6 (2012-10-22 Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk>)
===================================================================
Thanks to everyone who download cairo-1.12.4 and gave us their feedback.
It truly was invaluable and has helped us to fix many portability issues
that crept in with some of the new features. This release aims to fix
those stability issues and run on a wider range of systems.

Bug fixes
---------

  Fix the recording surface to actually snapshot the source and so fix
  PDF drawing.

  Calling XSendEvent with an XShmCompletionEvent is incompatabile with
  older Xorg servers.

  Reorder CloseDisplay chain so that XShm is not reinstantiated after
  shutdown, causing a potential crash if the Display was immediately
  recreated using the same memory address.

  Make sure that the Xserver has attached to the SHM segment before
  deleting it from the global namespace on systems that do not support
  deferred deletion.

  Type1 subsetting support for PDF (and PS) was once again improved to
  work with a larger number of PDF readers.

  GLESv2 build fixes and improved support for embedded GPUs.

  Tweak the invisible pen detection for applications that are currently
  using too large values for geometric tolerance.

  A build fix for older freetype libraries.
