Thanks to forum user http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?t=17646

mosaic.c: Bluescreen enhancement. Add convolution product of alpha mask with 5x5 gaussian. Makes it look better.

distort.c: change line orders.

* Scale width if only original height is known.

all: renamed DLL import library as libvlc.dll.a, as this is what mingw/cygwin ld expects to see. for more info refer to: http://www.sourceware.org/binutils/docs-2.16/ld/WIN32.html

all: for WIN32, create an import library libvlc-dll.a when linking libvlc.dll; updating linking for vlc.exe and activex.dll to use import library in place of dll.

Use include <file.h> for include files that can be found on the include path as provided to the compiler.

* fix the selection of both Theora and Vorbis on OSX (refs #503 and refs #531). They are being encapsulated in OGG now.

Fix running vlc from path in windows (see http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?t=17435 ). This could break the mozilla plugin on windows (see http://trac.videolan.org/vlc/changeset/9106) so i'm commiting and i'll do a nightly to check. One way to be sure would be to ask Gibalou but ....

vlccontrol.cpp: fixed bounds issue when allocating memory and iterating through a SafeArray, thanks to Walter Zheng for reporting this problem

Yet to find a solution for the same problem with shared libvlc

- Link against -lvlc instead of src/libvlc.so otherwise installed vlc
  cannot be loaded (closes #555)
- Remove src/libvlc.a when src/libvlc.so is built so that previous item
  does not break Win32 linking

<subliminal message>how about using libtool</subliminal message>

* Fix CDDA and VCD modules for Mac OS X Intel. Fix suggestion by Keiki SATOH aka demo-n <demo-n at users dot sourceforgedot net>.

- the Cancel-button is currently disabled because the core doesn't respond correctly (might be my fault though)
- note that the File's Owner of the nib-file is of type VLCInteraction because the class can't resolve its outlets otherwise

* WIDGET_TEXT and WIDGET_INPUT_TEXT are still missing, but will come in the next couple of days

As usual, comments on the implementation and the GUI-design are welcome :)
