Bug Fixes
---------
* Fix "invalidfont" error on some printers when printing PDFs with
embedded fonts that have glyphs (such as spaces) with
num_contours == 0. (Bug #79897)
* Fix deadlock when destruction of a scaled font indirectly triggers
destruction of a second scaled font, causing the global cache to be
locked twice. (Bug #93891)
* Fix X errors reported to applications when shmdt() is called before
the Attach request is processed, due to missing xcb and xlib calls.
* Fix random failure in record-paint-alpha-clip-mast test case, caused
by an incorrect assumption that a deferred clear can be skipped.
(Bug #84330)
* Fix crash when dealing with an XShmGetImage() failure, caused by a
double free in _get_image_surface(). (Bug #91967)
* Fix build issue when using non-GNU strings utility. (Bug #88639)
* Cleanup debugging text sent to stdout instead of log. (Bug #95227)
