OSD fonts still look the same, the problem is that I'm not able to make=20
freetype rendering any batter, because of antialiasing.. but now freetype i=

disabled by default, defaulting to the same behaviour of 1.1.2 release (it=

used freetype2, even if enabled, only if the xine fonts themselves weren't=
=20
found, which means.. it never used it for properly packaged xine).

Possible blocking issues:
 - xine-ui now use libcaca 0.99 which means a new xine-lib is needed to (us=
ing=20
libcaca 0.99 like the current CVS HEAD);
 - I'm experiencing stange tones after playback using the PulseAudio output=
=20
plugin;
 - MMAP still has trouble with MPEG2 stream it seems, but it's disabled by=
=20
default anyway so shouldn't be much of an issue.

We need at least one advisory for xine-lib and a couple for xine-ui by the=
=20
way, as they have a few security issues fixed in CVS (and in most=20
distributions).
