During the interim, we use (in FOP) a snapshot of the XGC trunk build, which we park at: lib/xmlgraphics-commons-svn-trunk.jar in the FOP source hierarchy. Updating this snapshot is a manual process, so it is possible that some dev has forgotten to update this after making an XGC trunk change. If you notice a difference between this snapshot and the current XGC trunk build, then let us know at fop-...@xmlgraphics.apache.org, and I'm sure someone will remedy that problem shortly.
