+ * Add new option --remove-unreferenced-resources that takes auto,
+ yes, or no as options. This tells qpdf whether to attempt to
+ remove unreferenced resources from pages when doing page splitting
+ operations. Prior to this change, the default was to attempt to
+ remove unreferenced resources, but this operation was very slow,
+ especially for large and complex files. The new default is "auto",
+ which tells qpdf to analyze the file for shared resources. This is
+ a relatively quick test. If no shared resources are found, then we
+ don't attempt to remove unreferenced resources, because
+ unreferenced resources never occur in files without shared
+ resources. To force qpdf to look for and remove unreferenced
+ resources, use --remove-unreferenced-resources=yes. The option
+ --preserve-unreferenced-resources is now a synonym for
+ --remove-unreferenced-resources=no.

* Allow qpdf to be built on systems without wchar_t. All "normal"
