The highlight of this release is that we now try to initialize thread
safety ourselves, rather than hope the application does it. This should
resolve a number of long-standing bugs with the libxcb integration,
since the socket handoff mechanism essentially has to be thread-safe.
But regressions are always possible, so please report any issues
introduced by this release.
