+- Update to 1.2.17
+ - API:
+  * Enquire::set_sort_by_relevance_then_value() and 
+    Enquire::set_sort_by_relevance_then_key(): Fix sense of reverse 
+    parameter.
+  * BM25Weight: Fix case where (k1 == 0 || b == 0) but k2 != 0.
+  * Unicode::tolower(): Fix to give correct results for U+01C5, 
+    U+01C8, U+01CB, and U+01F2
+ - testsuite:
+  * Automatically probe for and hook in eatmydata to the testsuite 
+    using the wrapper script it now includes.
+  * Fix apitest to build when brass, chert or flint are disabled.
+ - brass backend:
+  * Fix handling of invalid block sizes passed to Xapian::Brass::open() 
+    - the size gets fixed as documented, but the uncorrected size 
+    was passed to the base file (and abort() was called if 0 
+    was passed).
+  * Validate "dir_end" when reading a block.  (fixes #592)
+ - chert backend:
+  * Fix handling of invalid block sizes passed to Xapian::Chert::open() 
+    - the size gets fixed as documented, but the uncorrected size was 
+    passed to the base file (and abort() was called if 0 was passed).
+  * Validate "dir_end" when reading a block.  (fixes #592)
+ - flint backend:
+  * Fix handling of invalid block sizes passed to Xapian::Flint::open() 
+    - the size gets fixed as documented, but the uncorrected size was 
+    passed to the base file (and abort() was called if 0 was passed).
+  * Validate "dir_end" when reading a block.  (fixes #592)
+ - build system:
+  * configure: Improve reporting of GCC version.
+  * Use -no-fast-install on platforms where -no-install causes 
+    libtool to emit a warning.
+  * docs/Makefile.am: Fix handling of MAINTAINER_NO_DOCS.
+  * Include UnicodeData.txt and the script to generate the unicode 
+    tables from it.
+ - documentation:
+  * postingsource.rst: Clarify a couple of points
+ - portability:
+  * Protect the ValueIterator::check() method against Mac OS X SDK 
+    headers which define a check() macro.
+  * Fix warning from xlC compiler.
+  * Avoid use of grep -e in configure, as /usr/bin/grep on Solaris 
+    doesn't support -e.
+  * Fix check for flags which might be needed for ANSI mode for 
+    compilers called 'cxx'.
+  * configure: Improve handling of Sun's C++ compiler - trick libtool 
+    into not adding -library=Cstd, and prefer -library=stdcxx4 if 
+    supported.  Explicitly add -library=Crun which seems to be required, 
+    even though the documentation suggests otherwise.
