Overview of changes in Cairo 1.106
==================================

* Generate cairo-perl-auto.typemap and cairo-perl-auto.h in a deterministic
  fashion
* Use the pthread compatibility workaround on NetBSD as well
* Fix a test failure in t/CairoFont.t

Overview of changes in Cairo 1.105
==================================

* Fix libpthread-related building issues on OpenBSD

Overview of changes in Cairo 1.104
==================================

* Avoid misusing the macro PL_na, thus preventing potential issues when Cairo
  is used in conjunction with certain XS modules, among them XML::Parser and
  String::Approx.

Overview of changes in Cairo 1.103
==================================

* Hush a few compiler warnings
* Updated copyright date

Overview of changes in Cairo 1.102
==================================

* Fix building with perl <= 5.14
* Prevent crashes on exit with Cairo::Path on perl 5.6.

Overview of changes in Cairo 1.101
==================================

* Properly specify our dependencies.
* Fix some erroneous POD links.
* Distribute a missing test file.

Overview of changes in Cairo 1.100
==================================

Since 1.08x (the previous stable series)
----------------------------------------
* Make "use Cairo x.yyy" work.  This required renaming the old
  Cairo::VERSION, a wrapper for CAIRO_VERSION, to Cairo::LIB_VERSION --
  but we kept the old way of calling it working.  Cairo::version,
  Cairo::version_string and Cairo::VERSION_ENCODE got the same treatment
  for consistency.
* Auto-upgrade strings to utf8.  Note that this means that calling
  utf8::encode() on strings before passing them into Cairo will now
  yield doubly-encoded and thus broken strings.  Also, having
  utf8-encoded literals in your code without an accompanying "use utf8"
  line will also lead to double encoding.
* Expand and improve the README and META.yml files.
* Many compilation and test suite fixes.

Since 1.091
-----------
* Do not assume that sizeof(void*) == sizeof(long)
* Calculate a string length more efficiently
* added updated README text for RT#74870
* Created %meta_merge which follows v2 of meta-spec

Overview of changes in Cairo 1.091
==================================

* Auto-upgrade strings to utf8.  Note that this means that calling
  utf8::encode() on strings before passing them into Cairo will now
  yield doubly-encoded and thus broken strings.  Also, having
  utf8-encoded literals in your code without an accompanying "use utf8"
  line will also lead to double encoding.
* Fix compiling and testing against older versions of cairo.
* Make the test suite more robust.

Overview of changes in Cairo 1.090
==================================

* Make "use Cairo x.yyy" work; fixes RT#72783.  This required renaming the old
  Cairo::VERSION, a wrapper for CAIRO_VERSION, to Cairo::LIB_VERSION -- but we
  kept the old way of calling it working.  Cairo::version,
  Cairo::version_string and Cairo::VERSION_ENCODE got the same treatment for
  consistency.
* Updated FSF LGPL notice address (RT#72664)

==================================

* Update the symbol export list for linking on win32

* Make Cairo::Pattern->set_extend, get_extend, set_filter and get_filter
  available to all pattern types, not just surface patterns.
* Fix a memory manage bug in Cairo::FtFontFace.
* Fix a bug in the enum conversion code that made it more lenient than
