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.
bug reported by Brent
In the current implementation of xmms2_smart, when a song being played does not have an artist
name (as is the case with many streams) conky displays an empty space a dash followed by the
title (ex: " - Song Title"). The following patch improves this by only displaying the song title
in xmms2_smart when the song artist is empty. Moreover, the patch also fixes an issue that
existed with the previous xmms2_smart which seemed to be checking the string length of the song
title twice before outputing the url of the song. This seems like a typo and what this line
likely meant to do was check that both the song artist and song title were empty before
displaying the song url.

I removed the code for automatic killing of stuck children, because (by admission of the person
who wrote it) it wasn't working. I also removed the $pre_exec variable, because one can use lua
to generate the config on the startup, if one wants to.
This is only the beginning of the ipv6 support,
This var isn't documented and only works on Linux.
It should also be patched to show the addresses in compressed format
Some other vars should also be added to see things like netmask, scope, routes, ...
