This release of libXfont provides the fixes for today's security advisory
about BDF font parsing bugs.  Like libXfont 1.4.8, it requires fontsproto
2.1.2 or earlier and will not build cleanly with newer versions.

Alan Coopersmith (4):
      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 1.4.9

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