XXX powerpc asm stuff needs to be checked
XXX didn't test the "arts" stuff
- Fixed some bugs which caused xine to segfault under certain conditions,
and a long-standing issue that would make xine hang with the NPTL
implementation in Linux kernel 2.6.
- Stabilized core engine and much improved subtitles.
- Built-in VCD navigation, XvMC support and better handling of funny filenames.
- A security hole regarding the "#save" MRL option has been closed.
- Added a feature: append "#save:filename" to an MRL to save the stream during

- Lots of bugfixes.
Xine is a free multimedia player library for playing back CDs, DVDs,
and VCDs. It also decodes multimedia files like AVI, MOV, WMV, and MP3
from local disk drives, and displays multimedia streamed over the
Internet. It interprets many of the most common multimedia formats
available -- and some of the most uncommon formats, too.
This package provides the aRts audio output plugin for xine-lib.
