The LinkDemo program calls dlopen/dlsym/dlclose to try and load
a dyanmic library from /usr/lib. It read a global variable and
calls a global function (extern "C" of course :) ).
There a few hacks left in the LinkLib dynamic library, however.
In order to get the linker to stop complaining, we have to use
-nostartfiles -ffreestanding otherwise it will link crt0.o to our
shared object, which is definitely not right as the _init function
for a main program (that calls main) is not suitable for our lib
Much redundancy is removed from package scripts with this system.
It also supports simple dependency management, uninstalling (through
BSD ports style plist files), cleaning up after itself (with clean,
clean_dist, clean_all commands), etc.
Fork the IPC Connection classes into Server:: and Client::ConnectionNG.
The new IPC messages are serialized very snugly instead of using the
same generic data structure for all messages.
Remove ASAPI.h since we now generate all of it from AudioServer.ipc :^)
Instead of cowboy-calling the VESA BIOS in the bootloader, find the emulator
VGA adapter by scanning the PCI bus. Then set up the desired video mode by
sending device commands.
