Hi,
This is an semi-urgent bugfix release for the two commits of mine, which
fix a particularly bad failure in the compat code.  If you had a
SymInterpret definition (i.e. to map a keysym to an action, as used for
VT switch and others) with an unknown keycode, every key that wasn't
already mapped to an action would get mapped to your new action.

So, for example, if you had XF86LogWinTree mapped to the PrWins action,
and a libX11 that was unaware of the new symbol, every key aside from VT
switching, zapping, pointer keys and modifiers, would dump the window
tree to your X log, and do nothing else.

Distributions are strongly, strongly recommended to upgrade, including
in stable series.
