76        - minor assembly fix in x86 features detection (don't use the PIC
77          register, to avoid relocations in the text segment at runtime)

106        - disk thread: queue sizes are now proportional to CONFIG_MAX_STREAMS
107          instead of a fix value
108        - behavior fix: on MIDI CC# 65 (portamento on / off), 126 (mono mode),
109          127 (solo mode) only kill voices if the respective mode really
110          changed

112      * LSCP server:
113        - fixed compile time error for old Bison versions
114          (i.e. v1.28 found on MacOS 10.4, patch by Toshi Nagata)
115        - parser now supports extended ASCII character set
116          (up to ASCII code 255, i.e. includes now umlauts and accents)
117        - filename arguments in LSCP commands now allow to use escape
118          sequences, that is directly literal as one of: \', \", \\, \n, \r,
119          \f, \t, \v, or as octal ASCII code value like \132, or as hex ASCII
120          code value like \xf2) (fixes bug #24)
121        - the following LSCP commands now also support escape sequences for at
122          least one of their text-based parameters (i.e. name, description):
123          "ADD MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP", "MAP MIDI_INSTRUMENT",
124          "SET MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP NAME", "SET FX_SEND NAME", "CREATE FX_SEND",
125          "SET DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORY NAME",
126          "SET DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORY DESCRIPTION", "SET DB_INSTRUMENT NAME",
127          "SET DB_INSTRUMENT DESCRIPTION", "FIND DB_INSTRUMENTS",
128          "FIND DB_INSTRUMENT_DIRECTORIES"
129        - returns verbose syntax errors (line and column where syntax error
130          occured, the unexpected character and the actually expected, possible
131          character(s), the latter only if less than 5 possibilities)
132        - made sure that LSCP syntax is not affected by gigedit locale
133          settings
134        - bugfix regarding strings parameter lists: all comma separated lists
135          of strings were treated as being one string containing commas
136          (fixes #57)

139      - fixed crash occurring on certain LSCP scripts (Bug 39)      - fixed crash occurring on certain LSCP scripts (Bug 39)
140      - another thread safety fix for lscp "load engine" and "set      - another thread safety fix for lscp "load engine" and "set
141        channel audio output device"        channel audio output device"
142        - fixed a crash which occurs when reassigning the same engine
143          on a sampler channel with connected MIDI device
144        - fixed a crash which occurs when changing the number of ports of a MIDI
145          device connected to a sampler channel to number less then or equal
146          to the index of the port to which the sampler channel is connected.
147        - The previous bindings were not been disconnected when altering
148          the ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS parameter. Introduced a NONE keyword for
149          unsubscribing from all bindings (e.g. ALSA_SEQ_BINDINGS=NONE).
150        - The active stream/voice count statistic was incorrect.
151        - notification events were not been sent for some sampler
152          channel changes
153        - added default min and max values to restrict the number of allowed
154          audio output channels and MIDI input ports
155        - the connection to the PCM interface is now closed when destroying
156          an audio output device
157        - files with slash in their path or filename could not be loaded
