Some heavy changes today:
  * Removed duplicate function checks from configure.in.
  * Added extra magic to Makefile.modules so that the module Makefiles
    are now ridiculously simple. And I mean *simple*. Check it! This will
    make a possible switch to full autoconf/automake a lot easier.
  * Added the vlc version name to the plugin symbols, to be sure we only load
    plugins with the same version number. A nasty consequence is that you
    need to rebuild your tree after midnight if you are using a CVS tree :-)
  * Got rid of modules_export.h by #defining exported functions in the same
    header as their prototype.
  * Added modules_inner.h and other commonly used .h files to common.h so
    there are less and less files to include, and renamed common.h to
    <videolan/vlc.h>.
  * First modifications to the module handling system towards my ultimate
    goal to get rid of the *_Probe functions. Got rid of TestMethod and
    TestCPU, as well as src/misc/tests.c.
  * Wrote the chroma plugin handling functions. No YUV functions have been
    ported yet because it'ls a lot of work, but the core system works, I
    tried it with a naive yv12->rgb16 plugin (which will disappear when the
    real functions are ready).
  * Made a lot of functions in dvd_summary.c one-liners to avoid wasting
    too many output lines.
  * Fixed a segfault in input_dvd.c:DVDInit.
  * Added a fixfiles.sh script in plugins/gtk to be run after Glade has
    generated its C files.
  * Did some work on the KDE interface to make it suck a bit less. It still
    segfaults, but at least it runs and it looks less ugly.
  * RGB SDL rendering works again, though in 16bpp only.
  * Made plugins/vcd/linux_cdrom_tools.c independent of any vlc structure
    so that it'll be easily put in a library. Maybe libdvdcss?
  * Fixed VCD date display.
  * Merged vout_xvideo.c, vout_x11.c and vout_common.c into xcommon.c.
  * Wrote non-Shm XVideo output.
  * Made X11 output work again. Still pretty unstable, only works for 16bpp.
  * Additional french translation in po/fr.po. Any taker for the rest?
  * Fixed a segfault in video_output.c when the allocated pictures were
    not direct buffers.
  * If $DISPLAY isn't set, don't try to run the Gtk+ interface.
  * Replaced 48x48 .xpm images with 32x32 ones to conform to Debian policy
    (Closes Debian bug #126939).
  * Removed the automatic ./configure launch when running `make all' for
    the first time.

Stuff currently more broken than it ought to be:
  * The wall filter. Being fixed.
  * x11 and sdl plugins for depth != 16bpp.
  * Software YUV.
  * gvlc, gnome-vlc, kvlc shortcuts. Use --intf instead for the moment.

  * Forgot a file in my last commit.

  * Put ErrorThread() in input_ext-dec.h because it was the same function
    in all decoders. Called it DecoderError() instead.
  * All decoders enter DecoderError() in case of error, even if they
    haven't allocated all their data. This prevents the input from getting
    stuck if a decoder has failed its initialization.
  * Namespace fixes through the decoder files.

  * Fixed a segfault at EOF in input_es.c and input_ts.c (when i_read == 0).
  * Improved error recovery and avoided memleaks in the various input plugins.
  * Fixed a deadloop inserted by someone else into input_vcd.c :-)

containing no '/'.

* Minor optimizations in the Next Generation Buffer Manager.

  * Added Jeffrey Baker to the AUTHORS file.
  * Fixed a PPC compilation issue.

  * Mouse wheel seek patch for XVideo courtesy of Peter Surda.
  * Ported to SDL.

   * Heavy butchery in the VCD plugin. It should no longer segfault when
     reaching end of title.

  * --filter distort:ripple (Ok, ok, I promise it's the last one !! :-)

  * Fixed compilation with dvdcss disabled.
  * Fixed compilation with plugins disabled.
  * Removed useless variables in the VCD and DVD plugins.
  * Fixed a function which was returning "struct foo" in the VCD plugin.
  * Fixed the old � XVideo eats more and more CPU � bug I mistakenly
    reintroduced in my first vout4 commit.

  * Initialize SDL before opening the SDL audio output.
  * Prevent two SDL video outputs or audio outputs to be spawned at the
    same time to avoid ugly crashes.
  * The SDL plugin now says whether we are using software or hardware YUV
    in its window title.
  * We now stop at the first ':' when looking for a module name, to easily
    pass information to the modules. Possible example: --vout sdl:software,
    implementation of such an option is left as an exercise.
  * Merged filter_bob and filter_bob422 into filter_bob. Use --filter bob
    to deinterlace 422 into 420 as well.
  * Factorized code common to most filters and the video output, optimized
    a few filters by aligning data and reading 64 bits at a time.
  * Two new absolutely useless, CPU-eating, resource-wasting, but fun
    filters: enjoy `transform', which performs flips and 90� rotations, and
    `distort', which performs animated image effects (currently only a naive
    sine wave is implemented). Usage examples:
       --filter transform:hflip
       --filter transform:vflip
       --filter transform:90
       --filter transform:180
       --filter transform:270
       --filter distort:wave

  * Ultimate fixes to the win32 package generation.

  * Fixed Win32 build. You still need --disable-directx --disable-nls though.

  * TS input: bugfix in DecodePAT and minor optimizations elsewhere.

  * TS input: we now check that the contents of the PAT has changed
    before updating it, instead of just relying on its version number.

  * Pathetic attempt at a 4:2:2 renderer and deinterlacer, combining the
    most awful line dropping techniques of both BOB and 422 to 420
    downscaling. Don't worry, it should only survive for a couple of days.

  * CPU detection under BeOS.
  * Fixed XVideo port selection.
  * New stupid plugin: "--filter wall" for split-image playback :-)
     (will evolve into a real image wall plugin when I have time)

  * Support for REPORT_TITLE_KEY and RPC commands by H�kan Hjort
    <d95hjort@dtek.chalmers.se>.

vlc changes:
  * Minor coding style fixes (please avoid tabs).

  * Filter plugins. Not very polished (please don't look at how the dates are
    calculated!), but worth a try. Use the following flags:
     "--filter invert" for inverse video
     "--filter bob" for BOB deinterlacing
  * Fixed a potential segfault if the subtitle stream was encountered
    before the video stream.
  * Misc vout4 fixes.

  * Buffer choice optimizations - vout4 should eat even less CPU now.
  * Minor warning fix for Hurd.

  * Fixed aspect ratio handling.
  * Fixed potential compilation issues under eg. BSD/OS.

  * Another win32 fix.

  * Fixed Win32 port.
  * Fixed unnecessary target remake (recursive make is harmful !).
