This release of libXfont provides the fixes for today's security advisory
about BDF font parsing bugs.  Like libXfont 1.5.0, it requires fontsproto
2.1.3 or later and will not build cleanly with older versions.

Alan Coopersmith (6):
      Remove unneeded checks for #ifndef X_NOT_POSIX
      Use 'imdent' to realign cpp indentation levels in fslibos.h
      bdfReadProperties: property count needs range check [CVE-2015-1802]
      bdfReadCharacters: bailout if a char's bitmap cannot be read [CVE-2015-1803]
      bdfReadCharacters: ensure metrics fit into xCharInfo struct [CVE-2015-1804]
      libXfont 1.5.1

Christos Zoulas (1):
      Set close-on-exec for font file I/O.
