No, the recommended release build is 1175 and there hasn't been any
manual updates.

We have a problem with our procedure for handling CDraw updates so we
need to change it a little.

The problem is that our build server builds the official release xaralx
AND the official release libCDraw.a. It builds both from scratch and the
xaralx build uses the newly built libCDraw.a instead of the one checked
into libs/x86. Therefore the current release xaralx is fine, it uses the
new CDraw. But the source archive for 1175 doesn't have the new CDraw
because the .a wasn't checked in until later. 

So to correct the problem, I suggest that we update the 1175 source
archive so it has the correct CDraw libraries in it. I'll ask Graeme to
do this shortly.

And I'll change the build server so that it builds LX with the version
of CDraw under libs, instead of using the CDraw it builds from source.

It is 1175. That 1179 bug-fix was a P2 that was fixed after the release.
