device files useless. Fixing this does not break anything, but adds the
ability to copy device files properly. Ideally, both st_dev and st_rdev
should be returned for those programs that use the vfs to properly
recreate hardlinks. Used idea was it to only return one if these???
mcserv also does not return the amount written in a write - fixed
mc should now interface correctly with secure-mcserv in basic non-secure
mode

* mcserv.c: If setuid() is avaliable, use it, even, streuid() also
present. (BTW, bsdi uses it's own auth system..)
* po/Makefile.in.in: use DESTDIR (makes it possible to move
installation path with "make DESTDIR="...")

* vfs/mcserv.c (do_auth): mcserv never auth properly on bsdi.
(mc/vfs/mcserv.c do_auth() on bsdi we must use setuid() not
setreuid()).
* vfs/tcputil.c: use correct signal handler (void func(int)) on BSDI

* mcserv.c (do_link): Removed duplicate invokation of link. Thanks
to Grzegorz Makarewicz <mak@mikroplan.com.pl> for spotting this.

* All around the source: Changed copy_strings() to g_strconcat(). Modi-
fy last parameter in concat_dir_and_file() to "" - to prevent stack from
disbalancing.
The VFS code can now be used by other applications (if you compile the
libvfs.a target and link against this).
Syntax has changes internally from the url-like syntax to a new syntax
that does not have ambiguities. A default conversor for the new syntax
will be provided in the future, also dealing with the user ~/.mc/ext files
is currently in a non-optimal state.
Keep an eye on this mailing list.
