preparing for a new release |

Norihiro's latest fix is for a bug that is significant enough
that I would feel remiss not to make a release soon.
Here is one patch that looks worth including:
#17715 dfa: build struct dfamust on demand
Any other suggestions for changes to be included?

Sorry, I investigated many cases, but I couldn't find it.
When this bug is reproduced, must be s == 0 and s1 > 0 and
d->newlines[s] != d->newlines[s1]. In addition, they mustn't be
updated until reaches a next newline.
I believe that all of them is never filled at the same time. So I think
once I close the bug without fix.
