The commit that removed metacity-dialog added a global SIGCHLD handler
that caused problems by (a) calling waitpid(-1) and thus breaking
g_child_watch for everyone else, and (b) doing too much from a signal
handler and sometimes causing deadlocks (bug 596200).
This removes the global handler and has each zenity user create its
own child watch to watch for exit. (It also fixes the window class of
the zenity dialogs, so that meta_window_present_delete_dialog() will
work again.)
Don't include override-redirect windows in the list return by
meta_display_list_windows(), since we almost never want to handle
them when considering "all window" for the display. Add a separate
meta_display_list_all_windows() that includes override-redirect
windows.

Code:
All references in the code not related to themes, keybindings, or
GConf were changed from 'metacity' to 'mutter'. This includes, among other
things, strings, comments, the atoms used in the message protocol, and
the envvars used for debugging. The GConf schema file was reduced to
the 3 settings new to mutter.
The overall version was brought up to 2.27 to match current gnome.
Structure:
All files named '*metacity*' were renamed '*mutter*' with appropriate
changes in the automake system. Files removed are
doc/creating_themes, src/themes, doc/metacity-theme.dtd,
metacity.doap. These files will eventually end up in an external
gnome-wm-data module.
Installation location:
On the filesystem the mutter-plugindir was change from
$(libdir)/metacity/plugins/clutter to just $(libdir)/mutter/plugins.
The mutter-plugins.pc.in reflects these changes.
Note:
mutter.desktop.in and mutter-wm.desktop both continue to have
X-GNOME-WMSettingsModule=metacity set. This allows
gnome-control-center to continue using libmetacity.so for
configuration. This is fine since most the general keybindings and wm
settings are being read from /apps/metacity/* in gconf.
The metacity core is now directly aware of override redirect windows.
- They get MetaWindows like normal windows, so mutter no longer need to special
case them. The net wm types applicable to override redirects are also
recognised.
- The original positioning/stacking semantics of metacity with respect to OR
windows are maintained, but now it's easier to synchronize the stacking
between the core and mutter.
- mutter no longer needs to manualy track UnmapNotify, MapNotify,
ReparentNotify, CreateNotify and DestroyNotify events; instead map, unmap,
add and remove events can now be consistently delivered via the
MetaCompositor callbacks.

An attempt to make life a little easier for our beloved translators;
this has the same behaviour as before, but removes over thirty
translation strings.
* src/core/session.c (start_element_handler): all "attribute not found
on element" strings are identical
* src/ui/theme-parser.c (locate_attributes): allow attribute names to
be preceded with "!" (in the code) to show they're required.
(parse_aspect_ratio, parse_distance, parse_toplevel_element,
parse_style_element, parse_gradient_element, static, parse_border,
parse_style_set_element, parse_draw_op_element): use the new "!"
prefix for locate_attributes(), or in some cases just the identical
constant, for generating this error.
* src/ui/theme.c (check_state, meta_theme_validate): add
translator comments
* src/ui/resizepopup.c (update_size_window): add
translator comments

* src/ui, src/core, src/include: sort source files into these
directories according to which part of the WM they are supposed to
be in. In an eventual plan, we should also create
src/compositor/render, src/compositor/fallback and move some of
the compositor stuff into that.
* autogen.sh: require a newer automake, so we don't have to use
a recursive build
* src/ui/tabpopup.c: put in a hack to make the build temporarily
work, want to commit the large rearrangement before fixing this
not to include workspace.h or frame.h
* src/core/iconcache.c (meta_read_icons): temporarily break this
to get the build to work, want to commit the large rearrangement
before fixing this file not to include theme.h
