+	  (corrupt) mp3 files.
+	- autogen.sh now detects a distcc setup and adjusts the
+	  parameter for the -j option of make accordingly.

+	  delays on slow media.
+	- A new test for the test-suite that exercises the
+	  communication between para_server and para_audiod.
+	- The alsa writer eats up less CPU cycles when configured to
+	  use the DMIX plugin.
+	- Simplified and unified receiver code.
+	- Makefile cleanups.
+	- Commands which print a list of matching audio files now
+	  emit a meaningful error message if no audio file matched the
