No, the API has not changed since 0.99.4. There are still some packages

A very skeletal, preliminary X Strike Force homepage is up. Later, the
page will become prettier and I will flesh out my ideas for the XSF, but
for now, with around 300 outstanding bugs, there are higher priorities.

}
gcc -o test test.c
Run test as both root and a normal user and you'll see what I'm
saying.
