83        - minor assembly fix in x86 features detection (don't use the PIC

113        - disk thread: queue sizes are now proportional to CONFIG_MAX_STREAMS
114          instead of a fix value

119      * LSCP server:
120        - fixed compile time error for old Bison versions
121          (i.e. v1.28 found on MacOS 10.4, patch by Toshi Nagata)
122        - parser now supports extended ASCII character set
123          (up to ASCII code 255, i.e. includes now umlauts and accents)
124        - filename arguments in LSCP commands now allow to use escape
125          sequences, that is directly literal as one of: \', \", \\, \n, \r,
126          \f, \t, \v, or as octal ASCII code value like \132, or as hex ASCII
127          code value like \xf2) (fixes bug #24)
128        - the following LSCP commands now also support escape sequences for at
129          least one of their text-based parameters (i.e. name, description):
130          "ADD MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP", "MAP MIDI_INSTRUMENT",
131          "SET MIDI_INSTRUMENT_MAP NAME", "SET FX_SEND NAME", "CREATE FX_SEND",

136        - returns verbose syntax errors (line and column where syntax error
137          occured, the unexpected character and the actually expected, possible
138          character(s), the latter only if less than 5 possibilities)
139        - made sure that LSCP syntax is not affected by gigedit locale
140          settings
141        - bugfix regarding strings parameter lists: all comma separated lists
142          of strings were treated as being one string containing commas
143          (fixes #57)

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