Summary of changes since libspectre 0.2.5
=========================================

This is another bugfix only release in the libspectre's 0.2 series.

The most important change in this release is that gs is now always
initalized with the flag -P- to make Ghostscript not look in the
current directory for library files. See Debian bug
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=583183

Compiler flags -ansi and -pedantic are now optional and can be enabled
with --enable-iso-c configure option. It seems -pedantic causes
performance regression when compiling with Sun Studio compiler. Thanks
to Dagobert Michelsen for eporting the issue. (Bug #27735)

Files with a doseps header and without EOF comment are correctly
rendered now. (Bug #27830)
