WARNING: This is a unstable release, it is actually 0.24 Alpha release, it 
should work like any release from the 0.22 branch, but do not blame us if it 
turns your diamond into a tree.

Changes against the 0.22 branch:
core:
 * Make rendering thread safe
 * Large file support
 * Implement Crypt filter (Bug #62800)
 * Fix endstream detection (Bug #62985)
 * CairoOutputDev: support uncolored tiling patterns (Bug #59179)
 * SplashOutputDev: Introduce Thin Line mode support (Bug #37347)

qt4:
 * Expose Thin Line mode support

Since I released it 9 days later i've moved the rest of the times
 * May 27 - Poppler 0.23.1 (0.24 Beta)
 * Jun 10 - Poppler 0.23.2 (0.24 Beta 2)
 * Jun 24 - Poppler 0.23.3 (0.24 Beta 3)
 * Jul  8 - Poppler 0.23.4 (0.24 RC)

Things I have on my todo
 * Cannot open in poppler 0.22.1 a file saved after large file support patches
 * Can't open files bigger than 2 GB on linux with cmake-generated config.h
