motion motion

   * Error Logging Enhancement Patch v 1.3 including:
      * Populate the motion_log to the whole motion source code.
      * Fixed FreeBSD copilation.
      * Added the posiblity to pass NULL as struct context *
      * Removed unused errno variables.
      * Fixed errno in rotate.c , set to 0.
      * Fixed some errno flags in webhttpd.c and motion.c
      * Fixed a bug when not motion.conf is found
      * Removed printf from all files
      * Fixed the conf_list[] index in motion.c
      * http://www.lavrsen.dk/twiki/bin/view/Motion/ErrorLoggingEnhancementPatch
   * http-control: Fixed segfault when motion is restarted from command line
     ( kill -s 1 pid_motion ). Improved control code so Motion can Restart and
     Finish 'smoothly'. 
     http://www.lavrsen.dk/twiki/bin/view/Motion/MotionHttpControl.
   * Fixed a bug in the http control code that failed to accept a client
     connecting in some systems
   * Removed all warnings originating from the motion sources when running
     ./configure --with-developer-flags.
     The modifications were done by the following people: Peter Holik, Bill Brack,
     Angel Carpintero and Kenneth Lavrsen.
     http://www.lavrsen.dk/twiki/bin/view/Motion/ReduceWarningsPatch
   * Fixed small mistake in allocating memory for cnt->imgs.common_buffer.
   * http control updated: (null) messages replaced by "disabled", last parameter
     in conf/list are displayed correctly and only in Main thread. When motion runs
     with only one thread, it displays "No threads".
   * http control: selectbox instead of a textfield for changing boolean configs
     (Peter Holik and Angel Carpintero)
     http://www.lavrsen.dk/twiki/bin/view/Motion/WebhttpEnhancements.

      * Cleanup code and fix warnings.
   * Implemented fix to configure so that LDFLAGS from the environment are used
     when making the Makefile.
