MPD doesn't have child processes anymore, and thus we're not expecting
to receive SIGCHLD very often. Since hard disk access isn't
interrupted by signals anyway, we don't need those excessive checks.
The function playlist_metadata_load() will overwrite the input buffer
before using the "name" parameter; since "name" points to the same
buffer, we'll get a corrupted string.
Some users reported that MPD crashes when using a new CURL version
with the threaded DNS resolver enabled. It seems that
curl_multi_fdset() returns no file descriptor when the DNS resolver
runs in another thread, so MPD does not have any event to wait for.
On the CURL mailing list, somebody suggested to sleep for a fixed
amount of time. This is not an elegant solution, because daemons
should never have to sleep without waiting for an event. I hope the
CURL developers will review the API and remove the threaded DNS
resolver.
Meanwhile, I'm removing the assertion in question, to allow those
unfortunate users running the latest CURL version to continue using
MPD.
In libwildmidi 0.2.3, the function WildMidi_SampledSeek() was removed,
without changing the SO name. This patch adds an autoconf check for
that function. Fall back to WildMidi_FastSeek() if
WildMidi_SampledSeek() is not available anymore.
libavformat 0.6 does not pass the original URI pointer to the "open"
method, which leads to a crash because MPD was using a dirty hack to
pass a pointer to that method.
This patch switches to av_open_input_stream() with a custom
ByteIOContext class, instead of doing the URI string hack with
av_open_input_file().
Loosely based on a patch from Jasper St. Pierre.
Use the libavformat function av_probe_input_format() to probe the
AVInputFormat, instead of letting av_open_input_file() do it
implicitly. We will switch to av_open_input_stream() very soon, which
does not have the probing code.

I've attached a patch that will make file URIs work on operating systems
that provide the getpeereid() function call to check the user ID of the
peer connected to a UNIX domain socket.
