  * Merged from Debian unstable; new upstream version.
  * Remaining differences between
    Debian and Ubuntu in no particular order:

      source package.  Plus changes to make these libs build nicely.

    - Minor changes in directories, symlinks and debian/control
      to cope with Ubuntu and Debian's different histories.

      Malone #28563, Debian #350599, Mozilla Bugzilla 117844.
    - Change `Latest Headlines' to `Latest BBC Headlines' to properly
      disclose the source up front, and use a corresponding RSS URL.

      it.

   dropped by us, is retained in this changelog.
