GUI:
- improve drawing performance in single window mode, especially with
pixmap themes
macOS DMG: - Make the launcher script also set BABL_PATH

on some drag & drop operations - generate OSX package metadata during build
Plug-ins:
- Fix for CVE-2007-3126, a bug in the ICO plug-in which allowed
context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash)
via an ICO file with an InfoHeader containing a Height of zero.
We couldn’t reproduce any crash in recent version, but fixed the
error messages for good measure - Avoid creating wrong layer group structure when importing PSD
files (already fixed in 2.8.20, didn’t make it to the NEWS) - Prevent a crash in PDF plug-in if images or resolution are large
- stop parsing invalid PCX files early and prevent a segmentation fault
General:
- if NOCONFIGURE is set, autogen.sh won’t run configure
- VPATH builds for win32 targets have been fixed
