Hi,

I would like to highlight one more change that may have visible
consequences:

	client: Allow absolute paths in WAYLAND_DISPLAY
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland/commit/?id=1b6521e695de79a838c75e6bc5feba85e8aab13a

Software that already processes the raw value of $WAYLAND_DISPLAY
environment variable outside of libwayland may be affected.


Thanks,
pq
