mpd FTBFS on Alpha with a failure in the test suite [1]:

FAIL: test/test_byte_reverse
============================

.F...

!!!FAILURES!!!
Test Results:
Run:  4   Failures: 1   Errors: 0

1) test: ByteReverseTest::TestByteReverse2 (F) line: 58 test/test_byte_reverse.cxx
assertion failed
- Expression: strcmp(result, (const char *)dest) == 0

This occurs because the test suite (in test/test_byte_reversal.cxx)
allocates static char arrays and passes the char arrays to functions
whose respective arguments were declared to be uint16_t *, etc., in
the main code.

This is in the realm of undefined behaviour on architectures with
strict memory alignment requirements.  Although the test only fails
on Alpha (because Alpha has a particular CPU load instruction that
gcc likes to use to add bugs ..., ahem,  optimise the code on the
assumption of alignment) it is potentially a latent bug for other
architectures with strict alignment requirements.

Since the code is compiled with the c++11 standard I attach a patch
that modifies the test suite to align the non-compliant strings with
the alignas() attribute.  The test suite now passes on Alpha with
that patch.

Cheers
Michael

This seems to be caused by a lacking include, fixed by the below patch.

I'm unsure what made this appear now, though, compiler and toolchain
libraries seem to be the same upstream versions that built 0.19.14-1
just fine in late March.

A complete list which replaces the incomplete list in the mpd.conf
manpage.

Required for OpusTags packets which contain artwork.

See https://bugs.musicpd.org/view.php?id=4520

Reduce some overhead.  It is not necessary to copy the object.

av_free_packet() was deprecated in FFmpeg 3.0.

Adds support for stream codecs which havn't been explicitly listed in
ffmpeg_mime_types.

The Mutex and Cond constructors are only "constexpr" with glibc, and
this is what this #ifdef is about.

Backport of commit 459a812a

See http://bugs.musicpd.org/view.php?id=4511

When a reference counter is at its limit, don't allocate a new
TagPoolSlot - that would result in many TagPoolSlot instances with
ref==1.  This in turn would make the linked list very very large,
which means quadratic runtime for many operations.

Avoid wasting 4 kB stack per directory level.

There were two ways this could fail:

1. division by zero when sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE)==0

2. mmap() failure because the size parameter is not aligned to page
   size

Neither ever happened: sysconf() never fails, and the only caller
passes a size that is already aligned.  Phew.

The old check

 unsigned(value) > std::numeric_limits<unsigned>::max()

.. cannot ever fail.

Apparently all other C libraries are not compatible with "constexpr".
Those which are not will get a performance penalty, but at least they
work at all.

Fixes disappearing duration of remote songs during playback.

The initgroups() manpage says we need to check for _BSD_SOURCE.  The
thing is that glibc deprecated this macro, and doesn't define it
anymore, effectively breaking all MPD supplementary groups.

The real fix is to check for initgroups() availability at configure
time, instead of relying on the deprecated _BSD_SOURCE macro.
