- a friendlier function interface I've mentioned in one of my earlier
    mails
- 
+ a syslog wrapper
- more output modules: UDP, TCP, BEEP (BEEP is tricky to implement using a
    blocking scheme though)
- some optimization here and there (small & many memory allocations for
    example)
- better configuration parsing
- portability fixes (configure script is present but is not really useful)
