Thanks for your reply. I have the need, I'll try to do something with the
DXR3 code.

I've reported
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=672277 and added
there my first patch that makes the code compilable against 0.10.28. I'll be
glad for review and advices - I am sure you guys have experience converting
from 0.8 to 0.1x. For you it is likely just a translation from one dialect
to another, I was just guessing what the correct replacement could be.
I'll continue trying to make the fixed code run and produce some output.
