+Release 1.2.4 (2006-08-18 Carl Worth <cworth at cworth.org>)
+=========================================================
+This is the second bug fix release in the 1.2 series, coming less than
+two weeks after the 1.2.2 release made on August 8.
+
+The big motivation for a quick release was that there were a log of
+build system snags that people ran into with the 1.2.2 release. But,
+by the time we got those all done, we found that we had a bunch of
+fixes for cairo's rendering as well. So there's a lot of goodness in
+here for such a short time period.
