Center Cursor uses BKE_object_minmax(), which uses pchans' bone member to check whether a bone is visible or not. But after a duplication, the duplicated pchan->bone are NULL, skiping in this case (as if they were hidden, not optimal but should do the work for now - anyway, using pchan's values in Edit mode does not really make sense, imho).
Generated and UV coordinates from the duplicator of instance instead of the
object itself.
This was used in e.g. Big Buck Bunny for texturing instanced feathers with
a UV map on the bird. Many files changed, mainly to do some refactoring to
get rid of G.rendering global in duplilist code.
Issue was caused by cycles being duplicated curve objects before converting
them to mesh. This duplication will loose pointcache which resulted in object
not being properly deformed.

Also addressed code inconsistency due to changes in the trunk revision 50628 (color
management with OCIO) and 50806 (UV project material). OCIO-related changes are marked
OCIO_TODO as in some other files modified in revision 50628.
fix pose-group-sort and pose-group-moving being disabled for pinned poses.
also fix for own missing NULL check for pose mask clear which would crash when run without an active object
Until now, there was never any code for making drivers on materials get
recalculated when their dependencies were changed. However, since changing
material colors with drivers is something that is quite common, a workaround was
introduced to ensure that materials could still be driven (albeit with the
relevant drivers rooted at object level). This worked well enough so far with
traditional materials - though it was sometimes clunky and confusing for some
users - and would have been ok to tide us over until the depsgraph refactor.
The introduction of Cycles changed this, as it has in many other ways. Now that
people use Cycles to render, they'll need to drive the material colors through
the nested nodetree (and other things nested deeply within that). However, this
is much more difficult to generate hacks to create the relevant paths needed to
work around the problem.
== This Commit... ==
* Adds a recursive driver calculation step to the BKE_object_handle_update()
(which gets called whenever the depsgraph has finished tagging object datablocks
for updates), which goes through calculating the drivers attached to the object
(and the materials/nodetrees attached to that). This case gets handled everytime
the object is tagged as needing updates to its "data" (OB_RECALC_DATA)
* When building the depsgraph, every dependency that the drivers there have are
treated as if they were attached to object.data instead. This should trick the
depsgraph into tagging OB_RECALC_DATA to force recalculation of drivers, at the
expense perhaps of modifiers getting recalculated again.
== Todo ==
* The old workarounds noted are still in place (will be commented out in the
next commit). This fix renders at least the material case redundant, although
the textures case still needs a bit more work.
* Check on whether similar hacks can be done for other datablock combinations
* So far, only simple test cases have been tested. There is probably some
performance penalty for heavy setups still (due to need to traverse down all
parts of material/node hierarchy to find things that need updates). If there
really is a problem here, we could try introducing some tags to limit this
traversal (which get added at depsgraph build time). <--- USER TESTING

In the file included with the bugreport, framerates were dropping from 60fps to
11fps for an armature with several lattices parented, and a 5fps drop everytime
an object was parented to the armature.
Upon (re-)inspection of the code, it became apparent that this was being caused
by a block of code that would recalculate the parent (perhaps recursively) as it
thought the parent state was for the wrong timestamp. However, the timestamps
this was using was never really updated (except for a single place, which set it
to a single fixed value to force recalculations to take place), which meant that
this branch was run all the time. AFACT, this is a remnant from some of the old
timeoffset stuff + pre-Depsgraph timestamping hacks that are no longer used/set.
