* ./src/input/input.c: fixed a few segfaults caused by the dummy plugin.
  * ./plugins/mpeg_adec/mpeg_adec.c: fixed a segfault due to misuse of
    DecoderError.
  * ./plugins/x11/xcommon.c: replaced XFlush with XSync. This must be the
    fourth time someone has to commit this, so I added a reminder :-)

  * ./include/modules_inner.h: replaced _X with __VLC_SYMBOL because _X was
    already a system macro under MacOS X.
  * ./plugins/dummy/dummy.c: fixed vlc:loop, vlc:quit, etc. entries.
  * ./plugins/glide/glide.c: activated double buffering.
  * ./plugins/mga/xmga.c: started writing an xmga plugin; doesn't work yet.
  * ./src/input/input.c: fixed the input memory leak, and the insane thread
    spawning we got with vlc:loop.
  * ./src/misc/intf_eject.c: disc ejection routine courtesy of Julien Blache,
    currently Linux-only.

  * ./plugins/mga/mga.c: removed the mgammx module and put the code in
    the chroma_i420_ymga module instead. This introduces a slight
    performance issue as we now need to memcpy() the Y plane, but I have
    some vout4 enhancements on their way which make this point moot.
  * ./debian/changelog: imported official Debian changelog.
  * ./debian/control: activated the vlc-mad and vlc-arts packages; package
    builds should now work again.
  * ./plugins/dvd/dvd.c: solved a symbol resolution issue when vlc was
    compiled without libdvdcss which overflowed the return stack.
  * ./plugins/ggi/ggi.c: ported the GGI plugin to vout4.
  * ./plugins/glide/glide.c: ported the Glide plugin to vout4 (untested).
  * ./src/input/input.c: prepared everything for multi-input mode; since
    no interface is yet prepared to handle this, I changed them so that
    they just use the first available input for now. This may break other
    things, but I promise I'll eventually repair everything :-)

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.

  * Fixed a total breakage of decoder plugins introduced by fast_memcpy.
  * Got rid of #include "main.h", included it in common.h instead ; got
    rid of #include "config.h" in most files as well.

now be included *before* threads.h ;
* Changed all files to include intf_msg.h before threads.h ; while I was
at it, I update the copyright notices ;
* Removed the obsolete darwin plug-in.

* the network window of the interface reports the values of the environment
 variables.

* channels mode excludes vls configuration

* the vlc does not try to bind vls.via.ecp.fr by default when you select
 channels mode.

  * Fixed a bug in the gtk interface which caused vlc to go amok after
    having met a zero-sized area.
  * Found out how to type '�' in vim :-)
  * Added missing bloat to modules_export.h.
  * 'snapshot*' rules do not depend on 'clean', and don't use /tmp anymore.
  * Added vlc:loop playlist command to go back at the beginning.
    Usage: vlc file1.mpeg file2.mpeg ... fileN.mpeg vlc:loop
    This change isn't very elegant but there are already bugs in the
    playlist handling, I'll try to polish it once the playlist is fixed.

  * ncurses compilation fix by Michael Mondragon <mammon@lokmail.net>.
  * fix for large inline functions and gcc 3.0.
  * fixed the gnome plugin so that it does not include gtk headers.

-Fixed some bugs in interface (language menus in ts, misnamed fields)

-Play/Stop work in network mode to start/stop decoding of the stream

I have a segfault in imdct_3dn(93). But I can't underdand assembly.

  * Fixed the BeOS compile typo.
  * The ALSA plugin is back.
  * A gift for Gildas: plugins don't rely on backlinking any more. The
    drawback is the dirty magic in include/modules_export.h which has to
    be included whenever a module needs one of the functions in it. But
     a) we should less and less rely on those functions
     b) no plugin code modification was needed

   The BeOS and MacOS X modules may be broken when compiled as plugins,
   I'll check this later when I can reboot under BeOS.

-Bugfix in the interface to access the network specific features.

-Some base of synchro in ac3 spdif

Specific files are glade generated files and intf_* files. All the
remainders are common to gtk and gnome and contain all the callbacks for
both interfaces.
