libFS is the protocol binding library used by clients of X Font Servers (xfs),
such as xfsinfo, fslsfonts, and the X servers themselves.

This minor bugfix release includes the fix for the security issue recently
reported as CVE-2013-1996, as well as a number of other cleanups of the
memory allocation & error handling code noticed while working on that.

Adam Jackson (1):
      configure: Remove AM_MAINTAINER_MODE

Alan Coopersmith (9):
      Replace deprecated Automake INCLUDES variable with AM_CPPFLAGS
      Get rid of unnecessary casts in FS*alloc calls
      Get rid of unnecessary casts in FSfree calls
      Use NULL instead of 0 for null pointers
      Avoid reading outside bounds when _FSReply receives an Error response
      Avoid accessing freed memory on realloc failure in FSListFontsWithXInfo
      Get rid of more duplication in error cleanup code in FSListFontsWithXInfo
      Sign extension issue and integer overflow in FSOpenServer() [CVE-2013-1996]
