This also seems to make the pre-existing Qt4 crash more obvious.

That's not just the vlc service, thats *your* vlc service !
So remember the new number ! 0118 999 881 999 119 725...3

* Headers in include must contain the structures and prototypes needed
  by the plugins and should be named vlc_*.
* Headers in include/vlc must contain the structures and prototypes
  needed by external libvlc clients

* Moved and renamed some things in headers. 
   - Removed vlc_cpu.h, vlc_error.h (merged in vlc_common)
   - Removed snapshot.h (merged in vlc_vout.h)
   - Removed vlc_spu.h (merged in vlc_osd.h)
   - Removed intf_eject.h and vlc_interaction.h (merged in vlc_interface)
   - Moved all internal headers to src
   - Merged vlc_video.h and video_output.h and move private things to src
   - Removed vlc/intf.h, vlc/aout.h, vlc/vout.h, vlc/decoder.h and vlc/input.h
     (meta headers for use in modules, and often implying too large 
     dependencies)
* Removed some useless dependencies
* Unexported a bunch of functions and structures used only in src/
  (--> Still some work here)
* Finally made input_thread_t and input_source_t (mostly) private. 
  Added input_GetItem to fetch the input_item of an input_thread
* Cleaned up deprecated entries in vlc_symbols.h and bumped up symbol 
  prefix

This commit has a 99% probability of breaking the build, 0.1% of killing
your cat and 0% of getting you hot chicks.

Also, make it clearer what is shared and instance-specific

So,
libvlc_t ==> libvlc_global_t
vlc_t ==> libvlc_int_t (internal instance)

p_object->p_libvlc ==> p_object->p_libvlc_globale
p_object->p_vlc ==> p_object->p_libvlc

VLC_OBJECT_VLC ==> VLC_OBJECT_LIBVLC

And by the way, there is some cleanup required :) (ie, some things are created in the global object instead of the instance-specific one)

(da big courmischage)

 follow the key-pressed scheme (I have removed thoses seeks).
 Someone to do the work ?

    + Removed u8, s8, u16 etc. for good.
  * ALL:
    + Replaced all occurrences of u8, s8, u16 etc. with uint8_t, int8_t, etc.

* ALL: removed the old channels server stuff (was deprecated).

    linked with svgalib and svgalib using atexit().

* modules/*: sanitization of the modules description strings.

    defining its fourcc values like us.

    => to make volumeup/down compile

    avoid race conditions and deadlocks.

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

  * ./mozilla/vlcplugin.cpp: javascript support for the Mozilla plugin.
  * debian/rules: the A52 module is now in a separate package.

  for information on how to use it in your interface plug-ins. In the
  SDL vout, b and n are mapped to sound down/sound up.
* Fixed a major in the mad plug-in with wrong dates.
* Fixed a compilation bug.

    instead of our own variable.
  * ./modules/audio_filter/converter/a52tospdif.c, ./modules/codec/a52.c: added
    <unistd.h>, required for bswap.
  * ./modules/demux/mp4/libmp4.c: removed an unneccessary semicolon in a
    macro definition.
  * ./modules/audio_output/esd.c: first attempt at getting esd to work.
  * ./modules/video_output/*: split sdl.so into a video and an audio plugin,
    and removed useless subdirectories.
  * ./modules/audio_output/sdl.c: compilation fix.

    waveout, directx, qnx, beos, win32, macosx, and the AltiVec modules.
  * ALL: removed mention of AC3 in favour of A52.
  * ./configure.in, ./Makefile*: modules can now be built deeper than 1
    directory. As a consequence, the build is even slower (but I'm fixing
    this) and make clean doesn't work anymore.

    about 2000 lines of code.

    I could not test everything on every architecture, so please report
    any module breakage (especially on BeOS, OSX and QNX).

  * include/input_ext-intf.h: killed p_es->b_audio, since i_cat already fills
    its purpose.
  * include/input_ext-intf.h: killed p_es->i_type in favour of p_es->i_fourcc.
  * include/video.h: killed p_pic->p_plane->b_margin; now i_visible_pitch is
    always valid.

  * ./src/libvlc.h: replaced --mpeg-adec and --ac3-adec with --codec; see
    vlc --help for more information.

  * include/video.h: removed fourcc values which should _not_ be global
    (thanks fenrir for convincing me).
  * ALL: video output plugins use the VLC_FOURCC macro to build their fourccs.
  * ./plugins/beos/InterfaceWindow.cpp: removed the last remaining call to
    input_ChangeES.

   Things I'm not sure about and need comments:
    - I used "mpga" and "mpgv" for MPEG (1+2) audio and video fourcc values.
    - I also introduced "spu ", "lpcm" and "ac3 ".
    - I removed for instance "MP4_GetCodec" because it wasn't really
      used except for the description string. I hope this change did not
      break anything really important.
    - fenrir, I must have broken a lot of things you wrote. Sorry in advance.

  * ./src/libvlc.c, ./include/vlc/vlc.h: created reentrant versions of the
    libvlc API.
  * ./src/vlc.c: vlc uses the non-reentrant libvlc functions.
  * ./mozilla/vlcplugin.c: the mozilla plugin uses the reentrant functions.
  * ./debian/*: created packages for libvlc0-dev.
