- added controlled symbol export support for win32. Now, all visible symbols in libvlc.dll must be declared using either VLC_EXPORT or VLC_PUBLIC_API. Otherwise, they will not be exported. this has the advantage of reducing the number of symbols in the DLL, saving on file size an binding time at runtime. All exported symbols will be listed in the libvlc.def file.
This also pave the way for using the visibility feature in GCC 4, adding controlled symbols export for UNIX/MacOS X as well.

   compatible with UNIX fortune executable.

    - removed <10.3 support in the preferences' code
    - added preliminary support for Obj-C 2.0 / Garbage Collection
        - needs to be enabled manually in intf.h for now and is restricted to future Darwin release
    - updated various copyright dates to approbate values
    - configured the source tree in the Xcode project for future Xcode releases
    - finally renamed the Xcode project to the correct bundle extension

- direct3d.c: attempt to fix incompatibility with Vista, needs testing since i still don't have a Vista system to test against

* Qt4 : Use a QTreeWidget instead of a ui to display stats. I hope in that way it will become easier to resize and easier to add stats...

Btw about Qt4 modules, http://wiki.videolan.org/QtIntfTODO and http://wiki.videolan.org/Simple_Preferences have been updated. Give it a look and help us...

Forcefully set PKG_CONFIG_PATH and PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR for pkgconfig only if these environment variables haven't been set yet. And the path /usr/lib/pkgconfig exists. This fixes building wxwidgets in contrib for Fedora Core 6

Extend contrib buildsystem to allow for a finer control on system and Linux distributions rules. The bootstrap tries to guess the operating system to build for by looking at the compiler prefix. For native building (usually Linux/Unix-like systems) additional matching logic should be written. Currently only Fedora-Core systems are detected as being different from the normal Unix-rules.

Extend this logic to make a distinction for your system if it deviates from the standard Unix-like system that our contrib recognizes atm.

Add a dependency.

Make the "make source" much better, to do ffmpeg-svn, x264-svn, libmatroska-svn tarballs. That help a lot to make some directories with all the libs sources.
