> *** Changes from release 1.1.1 to 1.1.2 ***
>
> + Adapted to Python 2.1.  Among other things, all uses of the
>   "regex" module has been repleased with "re".
>
> + Fixed attribute error when reading large PNG files (this bug
>   was introduced in maintenance code released after the 1.1.1
>   release)
>
> + Ignore non-string objects in sys.path
>
> + Fixed Image.transform(EXTENT) for negative xoffsets
>
> + Fixed bitmap/text drawing in fill mode.
>
> + Fixed "getextrema" to work also for multiband images.
>
> + Added transparency support for L and P images to the PNG codec.
>
> + Improved support for read-only images.  The "load" method now
>   sets the "readonly" attribute for memory-mapped images.  Operations
>   that modifies an image in place (such as "paste" and drawing operations)
>   creates an in-memory copy of the image, if necessary.  (before this
>   change, any attempt to modify a memory-mapped image resulted in a
>   core dump...)
>
> + Added special cases for lists everywhere PIL expects a sequence.
>   This should speed up things like "putdata" and drawing operations.
>
> + The Image.offset method is deprecated.  Use the ImageChops.offset
>   function instead.
>
> + Changed ImageChops operators to copy palette and info dictionary
>   from the first image argument.
