pkg-config uses uppercase for its _CFLAGS and _LIBS variable names.
So we follow suit and convert all _cflags and _libs variables to
uppercase for more consistency.
the markmessageinterval was not correctly propagated to all places
where it was needed. This resulted in rsyslog using the default
(20 minutes) in some code pathes, what looked to the user like mark
messages were never written.
- added the ability to specify an error log function for the
runtime
- removed dependency of core runtime on dirty.h
Note that it is "better" modularity, not perfect. There is still
work to do, but I think we can for the time being proceed with
other things.
- 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)
was specified in rsyslog.conf
- fixed a bug that caused a segfault on queues with types other than "disk"
- removed the now longer needed thread TermSyncTool
This enables us to use more efficient calling conventions and
also helps us keep the on-disk structure of a msg object more
consistent in future releases.

a1ad6 I tried some mutex operations but came to the conclusion that
this does not really help. So I have now switched to plain thread
cancellation, which so far seems to be OK. Need more practical
experience with other input modules to make a final decision. Thus I
leave all code in and have just disabled the problematic code.
