libxcb provides an interface to the X Window System protocol, which
replaces the current Xlib interface. Xlib can also use XCB as a transport
layer, allowing software to make requests and receive responses with both,
which eases porting to XCB. However, client programs, libraries, and
toolkits will gain the most benefit from a native XCB port.
This release enables xcb-dri2. Not because DRI2 is supported on Cygwin
(it's not), but having the library avoids the need for an unwieldy (and
ever-changing) patch to Mesa's libEGL to build without it.
