Changes

  • General
    • Remove xmms plugin (Martijn van Beurden, TokyoBlackHole)
    • Remove all pure assembler, removing build dependency on nasm
    • Made console output more uniform across different platforms and CPUs
    • Improve ability to tune compile for a certain system (for example with -march=native) when combining with --disable-asm-optimizations: plain C functions can now be better optimized
  • Build system
    • Default CFLAGS are now prepended instead of dropped when user CFLAGS are set
    • -msse2 is no longer added by default (was only applicable to x86)
    • Fix cross-compiling and out-of-tree building when pandoc and doxygen are not available
    • Fix issue with Clang not compiling functions with intrinsics
    • Fix detection of bswap intrinsics (Ozkan Sezer)
    • Improve search for libssp on MinGW (Ozkan Sezer, Martijn van Beurden)
  • libFLAC
    • Fix issue when the libFLAC user seeks in a file instead of libFLAC itself
