In that commit I was just cleaning up for the release. The actual
changes were there before.

Have a look at the commit messages in libsynthesis where I bump the
version. That together with the libsynthesis patches gives an idea why
the new version is needed for SyncEvolution:

$ git log 
libsynthesis_3.4.0.16+syncevolution-1-2-99-1..libsynthesis_3.4.0.16+syncevolution-1-3-1

    autotools: bumped minor version
    
    Bumped minor version so that SyncEvolution can ensure that the version
    it is compiled against really fixes the VJOURNAL<->plain text
    conversion problem.                     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

A fix required for 1.3.1.

    engine: allow text->VJOURNAL conversion
    
    SyncEvolution uses the Synthesis engine to convert a plain text memo
    to iCalendar 2.0 in the local storage. ...

And here's the feature itself, added earlier.

The other commits are about build issues (pthread) and memory handling
(reading uninitialized memory). Those are not essential for
SyncEvolution, but useful anyway.
