+pdfTeX 3.141592-1.40.6 was released on 2008-02-04
+-------------------------------------------------
+- Bugfixes:
+ - inclusion of encrypted PDFs was broken (861)
+ - PDFs > 2GiB (LFS) would be broken, even on 64-bit systems. Now the basic
+ support for LFS is there, you only need to supply the right compiler flags
+ (this is not yet done automatically). See build.sh for hints on compiling.
+ - Page groups in pdfs (see the discussion in the notes vor v1.10a) are now
+ handled correctly (741)
+ - When including transparent PNGs pdftex now automatically adds a Page Group
+ (896)
+ - broken map files would lead to core dumps
+ - unusual TrueType fonts would lead to an assertion error (874)
+ - the null object in the object table was never initialized
+ - included PDFs with /PieceInfo lost their /LastModified date
+ - an empty colorstack crashed pdftex (897)
+- pdfTeX uses libpng 1.2.24
+- pdfTeX uses xpdf 3.02pl2
