I forgot to mention:

- C++0x features are being used in the code. For GCC, this means version
4.5 shall be used. I doubt it will compile with any other compiler
(maybe latest VS), but you can try and report.
- For this same reason, Boost.Threads is no longer a dependency, we use
STL threads instead.
