Original commit message from CVS:
* added plugin_desc structures to libs, which makes their locations cached in the registry. this
speeds plugin loading considerably, especially on uninstalled versions.
* put the lib path before all others, for speed reasons.
* some fixes to adder's caps.
* added linefeeds (\n) to GST_DEBUG strings to match GST_INFO behavior. this is more sane. all
code will need to be converted. i think some perl can do this.
Original commit message from CVS:
* removal of //-style comments
* don't link plugins to core libs -- the versioning is done internally to the plugins with the plugin_info struct,
and symbol resolution is lazy, so we can always know if a plugin can be loaded by the plugin_info data. in theory.

s/@GST_PLUGIN_LDFLAGS@/$(GST_PLUGIN_LDFLAGS)/
@-substitued variables variables are defined as make variables automagically,
and this gives the user the freedom to say make GST_PLUGIN_LDFLAGS=-myflag
Original commit message from CVS:
fix funny build issue by not linking plugin libraries to gstreamer core. this is
because they are plugins, not shared libraries per se, and will only be loaded by
the core itself. this change allows the core elements (schedulers, autopluggers, etc)
to use the core loadable libraries (bytestream, getbits, etc) as well as "ext" libs
like the new cothreads package.
Original commit message from CVS:
- plugins are built without versioning info /Uraeus claims: plugins/;
if not plugins why this is built as lib*.so.0.0.0?
Original commit message from CVS:
* s/filter/plugin/
* add $(GST_LIBS) to all plugins
* move Makefile.am things around to a mostly standard layout
* remove HTTP flags/libs from elements since http element moved
