11 * Added head/tail rewrite patch (thanks Ryan Twitchell)
12 * Added diskio read/write sf.net patch 1542880 (thanks Blondak)
15 * Clear conky vars on disconnect/failure to open files.

22 - requires libdexter (http://sourceforge.net/projects/libdexter)
23 and the dxt-sysinfo plugin (svn only at the moment).
25 - dexter_client yes/no
26 - dexter_server yes/no
27 - dexter_config /path/to/libdexter/config (default: $HOME/.dexterrc)
28 - own_window_class <WM Class Name> (default: Conky)
29 - replaces wm_class_name
30 - own_window_title <Window Title> (default: <hostname> - conky)

32 - wm_class_name (use own_window_class, same function)
34 --disable-network (default=yes) with auto-detection for libdexter.
35 - remove useless --enable-proc-uptime (PROC_UPTIME never referenced).
36 HAVE_SYSINFO and others determine if /proc/uptime is used.
37 - silently disable xft, double-buffer and xdamage if no x11.
38 - change enable/disable labels to reflect defaults accurately.
39 - simplified compile-based checks for sysinfo/getloadavg and by moving
40 them into AC_CHECK_FUNCS.

42 - do not pass button clicks through to desktop in this scenario as conky
43 immediately loses focus.
46 * Clarify LGPL license on timed_thread modules.
50 * Split battery variable into two:
51 battery, e.g. "charging 75%" and

69 max_port_monitor_connections
72 * Added $entropy_avail, $entropy_poolsize and $entropy_bar
73 for the crypto freaks. Idea suggested by Perttu Luukko
74 <nuteater@users.sourceforge.net> in feature request 1497050.
75 * Added max length specifier to audacious_title. Closes
76 feature request #1600631.
79 * Rearrange retry attempts in pop3 and imap code, removing sleep()
80 calls which cause the whole process to sleep, not just the thread.
83 * Added max_specials config item with default 512. This should
