also change a magic constant in net_stat.h to reflect the fact that it depends on
MAX_NET_INTERFACES. For more info, see sf.net #2872682 and gentoo bug #384505
ps: this should really be solved in a more need way, without the need for static arrays
apparently, this was actually a feature as someone made it deliberately act that way. However, I
agree with the bug reporter that it is strange so I remove it.
Currently the variables related to xmms2 in conky do not update if the currently playing track
has any of its information updated (ie: the title changes). This results in incorrect behaviour
for streams where the same track is continually played but the title and artist change as new
songs are played. The attached patch corrects this issue by changing conky to respond to a
callback that fires when xmms2 media library entries are updated. After the callback fires, the
patch checks to see if the media library entry that changed corresponds to the currently playing
song and if it does updates the conky xmms2 related variables accordingly.
A different version of the patch was previously submitted and accepted into conky. Unfortunately,
this patch contained a bug that caused conky xmms2 variables to be updated when any media library
information was updated. However, the previous patch was reverted as a result of a commit the
made conky compatible with a new version of the xmms2 client api.

this sort of fixes sf.net #3306538. The person there correctly tested for the existance of the
file with $if_existing, but the problem is we run the callbacks regardless of the conditional
tests.
Noone knows what it was supposed to do and removing it seems to fix sf.net #3411610 (and probably
a few others). If it turns out it was doing something useful, we will try to reintroduce it
without breaking other things.
The problem was that the callback thread is destroyed only in the destructor of the callback_base
class (which is called after the destructor of the derived classes). This means that the thread
is running even when it's object is partly destroyed, which can cause segfaults, race conditions
and other nasty problems.
I've fixed it so that the thread is destroyed before the underlying object's destructor is
called.
I revert this, because it breaks padding for numbers < 1000, which causes ugly text shifts when
numbers change from <1000 to >1000. If someone disagrees with this, we can talk about it in
#conky. I asked before doing this, but noone seemed to care.
This "fixes" bug #3389641 on sf.net, reported by sakalisc.
This reverts commit c9cf08d9e9.

when the system clock is moved backwards, the update interval would be calculated incorrectly. If
it was moved back far enough, conky would use 100% cpu. Conky now uses monotonic clock to prevent
this. If it turns out to be unsupported on some platform, an appropriate fallback can be added.
problem reported by norsetto
conky now sends the password using the length + string format, which should not need any quoting
of special characters. Hopefully, we won't find a server which does not support this encoding.
This also fixes a bug which prevented the password from being entered from the console.
