* Updated BeOS and QNX outputs with respect to i_channels policy.

(input_NextPES);
 * araw.c : use this new function.

 * modules/demux/asf/*: some clean up

usable, but it begin to give good result.

* include/vlc_threads.h: Avoid locking the interface,
* ALL: reworked all audio output plug-ins to correctly take into account
  i_channels. At present this is known to break OSS, probably others.

    the DirectX plugin (please test compilation).

  * ./modules/video_output/x11/xcommon.c: we transmit the click only at
    release time.

  * ./modules/access/dvdplay/intf.c: instead of probing the mouse on each
    loop iteration, we set a callback on the corresponding variables.

    can now use var_* functions from within your callback, they can even
    trigger callback themselves, to any level. The main restriction is that
    you shouldn't meddle with a variable that is already being triggered by
    the current thread (other threads will just wait).
  * ./src/misc/objects.c: fixed a deadlock in the "tree" command.
  * ./modules/misc/testsuite/test4.c: added a "callback-test" command to the
    rc interface to test callback loop detection and concurrent triggers.

    palette, implemented the "force display" command as forever-living
    subtitles, and reworked some code.
  * ./src/video_output/video_output.c: we increment the image date even if
    we are repeating the previous image, so that subtitles have a chance to
    get displayed.
  * ./src/video_output/vout_subpictures.c: ephemer subpictures don't timeout.

crates a little button next to the textarea that pops up a file open dialog
where the user can point and click on the file to select. It also drops down
a list of possible completions as the user types.

* Fixed a compile issue in the vcd plug-in,
* Fixed SDL behavior with > 2 channels.

    callbacks.

    under platforms without libintl such as Win32. Use --with-included-gettext
    to test. Might break compilation on systems I don't have access to.

    phase.
  * ./modules/video_filter/deinterlace/deinterlace.c: the bob method now
    flickers less thanks to a patch from Marian Durkovic <md@bts.sk>.

    we now release the variable lock before calling the command.
  * ./src/misc/threads.c: removed deprecated code.

* Fixed detection of VCD support under OS X.2.

* modules/access/vcd/*, configure.ac.in:
   - Major changes to allow reading vcd images directly from the hard drive
      (you need a .cue and .bin file).
   - Removed duplicated code by merging ioctl_GetTrackCount and ioctl_GetSectors.
   - Implemented necessary ioctls for Win9x/NT/2K/XP.

    vlc_mutex_need() and vlc_mutex_unneed().
  * ./src/misc/variables.c: implemented VLC_VAR_MUTEX variables.
  * ./modules/misc/gtk_main.c, ./src/libvlc.c: replaced named mutexes with
    named mutex variables.

and to prepare for OpenDML support.
Add new options :
  --avi-index force index creation.
  --avi-interleaved force method used for unseekable stream but need
interleaved stream and could lead to loss of audio/video synchro.

 * wav : demux for wav file( should work with raw pcm, mp3 or a52 stream ) but
untested under big endian machine(for pcm).

All are compiled by default.

Updated description.

    by making the spawned threads wait a bit longer.
  * ./src/misc/variables.c: added a usage count to the variables; trying to
    create a variable with the same name only increments its refcount.

  * ./include/main.h: removed p_vlc->i_status because it was not sufficient
    to represent all the possible states of p_vlc; each part should be tested
    separately upon destruction.
  * ./src/misc/objects.c: fixed a signed/unsigned bug that prevented creation
    of VLC_OBJECT_GENERIC objects.

  * ./src/misc/variables.c: added the VLC_VAR_COMMAND type which is simply a
    variable that stores a function pointer, and calls it when var_Get is
    called for it. The function argument is taken in val.psz_string.
  * ./src/misc/objects.c: vlc_dumpstructure and vlc_liststructure are no longer
    exported to the rest of the program; instead, they're VLC_VAR_COMMAND vars
    ("tree" and "list").
  * ./modules/control/rc/rc.c: moved a few commands to VLC_VAR_COMMAND vars.

    compiled yet because it uses the "command" variables I'm about to check
    in. They need to be typed in the rc interface for instance (-I rc). This
    module has two available commands: "signal <int>" which sends the given
    signal to the vlc process, and "stress [<int>]" which performs a series of
    object creation/lookup/destruction, variable creation/setting/destruction
    and thread spawning/joining tests. The optional argument for stress is an
    integer between 1 and 200 (the bigger, the heavier the tests; it may hang
    your machine at around 150, be careful).

It is kludgy, but it works ;)

 modules/gui/kde/*: only set variable the user actually have changed when
apply is pressed in the preferences window.

identical ! So I removed hacking.xml...

* configure.ac.in: fix for the mingw32 build. The gtk plugin may also need mingwex.
* modules/demux/mpeg/ts.c: added an #include <stdint.h> to make mingw32 happy when
   compiled with libdvbpsi.
* Makefile.am: fixed dependency problem with share/vlc_win32_rc.rc.
