- moved module loader from conf.c to module.c, where it belongs
- made the necessary plumbing to auto-load library modules
- upgraded debug system to include iRet in function exit message
- changed module interface so that instances need only to be supported by
output plugins (if we actually need them for input plugins, we can
always add it again...)
- milestone: first implementation of library modules (but do not get
unloaded on exit/hup so far)
- changed the object/interface system to use a new way of calling, giving
up the numerical object ID. This was necessary as we needed more
extensibility for third-party modules (which don't play at all with the
previous fixed object ID). This is stage work for the object loader.
Please note that I needed to change the object (de)serializer, I can't
outrule that I have introduced bugs there.
expression support as it is implemented
- fixed a couple of bugs in expression system
- added more operations to virtual machine - now works well with constants
separate plugin (so that gssapi and plain tcp functionality can be
individually distributed). Also inclulded some other enhancements, most
importantly initial compatibility mode system
