  channel mixers was broken (again) in 0.8.1 and 0.8.2; hopefully this
  will fix it for good, by allowing audio filters to request a specific
  format rather than imposing them an arbitrary one
- various other small fixes in the audio output core
- option to force detection of Dolby Surround
- simple module to decode Dolby Surround
- increase spatialization with two center speakers and fix channel
  order for 7.1 streams in the headphone channel mixer

    works, but gcc 4.0.x doesn’t build some constructs properly.

   patch courtesy of Wallace Wadge (thanks!).

* MRLS are of the form gnomevfs://ssh://user:pass@ (if anybody has something better)
* Still some issues with some accesses (smb for instance) where it seems it required to open the directory in which the file is before opening the file itself.

* configure.ac: allow building vlc's mozilla plugin against gecko-sdk. Patch by Diego Petteno (flameeyes at gentoo) + modifications by me.

* configure.ac, modules/access/smb.c: compilation fix for new libsmbclient versions. Patch by Diego Petteno (flameeyes at gentoo dot org).

  Be AWARE that this currently doesn't do anything. It just reads the file and prints the values to debug. I'll see if I can get a stream running tomorrow.

   to spawn an external process and get its output. Only implemented for
   UNIX-style systems at present.
 * src/misc/httpd.c: New "handler" node type which bypasses the internal
   HTTPD behaviour.
 * modules/control/http: New --http-handlers option to dedicate
   particular extensions to external programs (PHP or Perl for instance).
   This is in accordance with the CGI/1.1 specification.

* Fix access_output_shout and add RTSP to the description of live.com module. (so ppl know what it's for)

   compilation time.
 * configure.ac: Compilation information are now determined at
   configure-time. Fixed libSDL_image static linking.
 * src/libvlc.c: Removed VLC_CompileTime() since this is not possible
   without increasing the compilation time.

with --enable-shared-libvlc

  I said "experimental". I meant it.
  Developers might try --enable-shared-libvlc
- remove autom4te*.cache on bootstrap
  (some customized autoconf add their version number)
- some clean up
