Changes :

New
. new tag <logsize> in <logging>, state the trigger size (in KB) for 
cycling the log files.
. new tag <logarchive> in <logging>, enable (1) if you want to use a 
timestamp for an extension when cycling logs.


Fixes
. Handling of certain shoutcast source clients is fixed, this typically
   affected NSV source clients
. A race in source shutdown when listeners are authenticated could lead to 
server crash
. An audio glitch was possible in playback of vorbis streams when a new
   logical stream started (eg metadata update).
. stats speedup. Processing large numbers of stats was slow. Typically only 
seen when using lots of streams on the same server.
. 404 responses were being sent back in some places, now 403 is sent back.
. Auth URL now handles the authentication to scripts better. The order in 
which username/password are selected is
   1. url is http://user:pass@host:port/....
   2. <param name="username">  and <param name="password">
   3. with listener_add/remove, listener supplied username/password is
     used.
. A streams intro file can now be changed, using HUP,  on active streams.
. mount without a name crashed the server
. Various documentation updates
