Karl Heyes 2e59754dcd commit kh10 changes. Fairly major as it changes the threading. We now use N
workers (as specified in the xml) instead of the one thread per source model.
This affects most files as they tend to interact with a client to some degree
but some of those are in minor ways.

The most significant changes are in :-
- file serving engine. There is no separate thread now, so the client reads
and sends are driven from the worker, this includes the error responses.
- The source client and listener processing. The source client details have
to stay around until the listeners are processed.
- slave engine. relays are always allocated a client on the worker, with a
thread created just for the connection phase. Makes it easier to handle when
switching to another relay source.

icecast 2.x - README
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Icecast is a streaming media server which currently supports Ogg 
Vorbis and MP3 audio streams. It can be used to create an Internet 
radio station or a privately running jukebox and many things in 
between. It is very versatile in that new formats can be added 
relatively easily and supports open standards for commuincation and 
interaction.

Icecast is distributed under the GNU GPL, version 2. A copy of this
license is included with this software in the COPYING file.

Prerequisites
---------------------------------------------------------------------
icecast requires the following packages :

* libxml2 - http://xmlsoft.org/downloads.html
* libxslt - http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/downloads.html
* curl - http://curl.haxx.se/download.html (>= version 7.10 required)
  NOTE: icecast may be compiled without curl, however this will
        disable all Directory server interaction (YP).
* ogg/vorbis - http://www.vorbis.com/files (>= version 1.0 required)
