I haven't used the parallel-wget branch as yet.
I made an attempt some time ago, but found that the documentation was
lacking and I had no idea on how to proceed with using the threads and
metalink features. I'll give it another shot now and see if I can get it
working.
Though as long as we're not breaking the stable release when threads and
metalink are disabled, I don't see any harm in merging the branch into
master.
