* backend/mustek_pp.c, sanei/sanei_pa4s2.c: added support for auto
probing of the port
* configure{.in}, backend/mustek_pp_ccd.*, backend/Makefile.in,
backend/dll.conf, doc/sane-mustek_pp_ccd.man, doc/sane.man,
doc/Makefile.in, doc/descriptions/mustek_pp_ccd.desc: mustek_pp_ccd
backend removed
* backend/mustek_pp.conf, mustek_pp_ccd300.[ch],
doc/sane-mustek_pp.man, doc/descriptions/mustek_pp.desc: fixed CCD
support for mustek_pp backend
* backend/mustek_pp_null.c: beautified debug scanner name
pthread support, added switch --enable-fork-process which toggles
between the usage of fork and pthread, set the default behaviour to
pthread usage on Darwin
* include/sane/config.h: added the HAVE_LIBPTHRAD stuff
* sanei/sanei_thread.c include/sane/sanei_thread.h: fixed compilation issue
on OS/2, added support for fork too, so that we can use sanei_thread
functions in any case.
* backend/plustek.[ch]: changes due to the sanei_thread-lib work
added linker option -lpthread if pthread.h is found
* include/sane/config.in.h: added HAVE_PTHREAD_H
* sanei/sanei_thread.c include/sane/sanei_thread.h: added pthread_
functions to library, so every backend is able to use either fork or
pthread for its reader-process - see plustek backend for example
* backend/plustek.h backend/plustek.c: added sanei_thread stuff to support
threading on MacOS X
* backend/plustek_pp*: some cleanup
The backend was renamed to mustek_pp_ccd to avoid conflicts with the new
mustek_pp backend for CIS scanners. The code was taken from sane-backends
1.0.9. This is only a temporary solution. The goal is to incooperate CCD
and CIS support into mustek_pp.
All the supported CanoScan devices should work now correctly.
Moved the Plustek parallelport support into a separate backend: plustek_pp.
Added new backend for Plustek ASIC 9600x/9800x based parallelport scanner.

* configure.in configure include/sane/config.h.in: added detection of
machine/cpufunc.h and i386_set_ioperm() for FreeBSD support.
keep similar tests in one group. Moved more complicated tests to
acinclude.m4. Added explicit test for build and host system type. When
checking for programs, used $EXEEXT (hopefully fixes OS/2 gettext
misdetection). Removed obsolete macros. Removed PTAL check. Used autoconf for
asm/io.h check. Shortened --enable-foo output and formatted it
correctly. Translations were installed even if --disable-translations was
set. Don't test for msgcat anymore. Tell why translations aren't
installed. Used autoconf 2.5 syntax for AC_OUTPUT and AC_CONFIG_FILES. Make
sane-config executable. Print flags and installation directories near the end
of configure output.
