Snapshot 2.99.908 (2013-01-31)
==============================
A couple of regressions dashed the hopes that .907 was to be the final
release candidate, so time to start the cycle again after applying a few
more bugfixes.

  * Fix invalid pageflipping of GLXPixmaps by UXA.
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73282

  * Consistently treat DPMS Suspend/Standy as Off, otherwise we may
    incorrectly restore the backlight in UXA.

  * Fix disabling the backlight in UXA when querying the value whilst off
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73181.

  * Invalidate between every operation if rendering into the source or mask.
    Fixes regression in 2.99.907 on Ivybridge (seen in KDE)
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73208

  * Check for available batch buffer state before restoring state on gen4,
    otherwise we overwrite surface state with commands and cause a GPU hang.
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73348

  * Prevent an invalid free by TearFree
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73469

  * Fix confusion in TearFree when it tried to pageflip to a stale bo
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=70905

  * Initialise TearFree contents with the current frontbuffer upon creation,
    otherwise old content may be visible for significant fractions of a
    second after resume or DPMS on
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73842

  * Nullify the old pointer into a CPU mmapping of the bo when promoting it
    on the GPU. Eventually that old pointer becomes invalid and will cause
    the Xserver to crash.
    Fixes regression in 2.99.906
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73351

  * Restore the serialNumber on the GC correctly after falling back to
    software. This was seen to cause corruption with Wine.
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73856

  * Do not ignore CPU damage on a pixmap unless the Composite operation
    will completely overwrite it. This was observed in xfce4.
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69528

  * Skip fake outputs during initial probe as they can cause a NULL pointer
    dereference.
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73981

  * Fix rendering of dashed zero-width lines onto 24bit buffers
    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1059152

  * Cap the freed Pixmap cache and reuse it more often
    Fixes a regression in 2.99.907 that caused the memory used by X to
    grow until it was cleaned up during server regreneration
