Geany tends to not include every version of scintilla because of the
effort involved in checking and verifying all the filetype settings
and style mappings still work. The number of languages is also
reduced from those available in Scintilla for the same reason.

Scintilla 2.29 has only recently been ironed out, although changes may
have made the process easier.
