GraphicsMagick 1.1.11 is now available.  This release is API and ABI 
compatible with prior 1.1.X releases so it is a drop-in replacement 
for earlier releases.  Dependent applications should not require 
recompilation.  Hopefully this will be the last release from this 
branch.

The release may be downloaded from SourceForge at 
"http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=73485".

Visit http://www.graphicsmagick.org/1.1/ for the web page for 
GraphicsMagick 1.1 and to read the detailed ChangeLog.

The fixes/changes in this release are summarized below:

   Bugs Fixed:

     o BMP: Support large files.

     o DIB: Support large files.

     o PNG: Fix depth handling with 16-bit PNG files in the Q8 build.

     o SUN: Properly report image depth.

     o TIFF: Endian option (-endian) now controls TIFF byte endian order
       rather than bit fill order.

     o DCM, DIB, XBM, XCF, XWD: Eliminate integer overflow vulnerability
       (IDefense 09.19.07).

     o HSL colorspace transform: Avoid optimization bug noticed on Opteron
       with GCC.

     o HWB colorspace transform: Avoid optimization bug noticed on Opteron
       with GCC.

     o RGBTransformImage()/TransformRGBImage(): Was using HWB colorspace
       when HSL was requested.

     o Successfully reads files with names like 'file[123]'.

     o 'gm display': No longer rely on isatty() to determine if input is
       from a pipe (use 'gm display -' to display an image read from a pipe).

   Feature Improvements:

     o 'identify +ping' forces the pixels to be read (similar to GM 1.2).

     o 'gm -version' now indicates if build supports "Large Memory" (i.e. 64-bit).

     o TIFF: Use '-define tiff:fill-order={msb2lsb|lsb2msb}' to control
       TIFF bit fill order.
