The most important feature of this release is a set of locking fixes,
which unbreak this library for threaded apps. The lock issues were
exposed by libxcb.
-- XChangeDeviceControl: Fix completely broken locking
-- XSetDeviceFocus: Add missing extension check
-- XGetSelectedExtensionEvents: Still more locking bugs
-- Bug #9659: Bad markup on XListInputDevices.3x
