HI all,

it is worse than I thought ...

> * it changes API without bumping so (synctex_nex_result is renamed!)

Unfortunately, synctex_next_result wasn't only renamed to 
synctex_parser_next_result (that would be easy to fix), but all the
types and structs have changed.

That means, everyone distributing shared libraries of synctex need to
bump the so number as this is not fixable unless all programs are
recompiled against the new version of synctex.

Happy developing

Norbert
