 This is an semi-urgent bugfix release for the two commits of mine, which

 SymInterpret definition (i.e. to map a keysym to an action, as used for
 VT switch and others) with an unknown keycode, every key that wasn't
 already mapped to an action would get mapped to your new action.
 
 So, for example, if you had XF86LogWinTree mapped to the PrWins action,
 and a libX11 that was unaware of the new symbol, every key aside from VT
 switching, zapping, pointer keys and modifiers, would dump the window
 tree to your X log, and do nothing else.
 
 Distributions are strongly, strongly recommended to upgrade, including
 in stable series.

Please see the xkbcomp 1.2.3 release for an emergency brown paper bag
release.  I've removed the 1.2.2 tarballs from the X.Org servers.

Sorry about this.

Cheers,
Daniel
