+Changes in release 3.0 (25 feb 2009 - SVN revisions 763 to 1097)
+
+* Buildroot:
+  Main changes: upgrade to 20081103 version, adding of AFP27 target, upgrade to GCC 4.2.1
+  Other changes:
+  - Deactivate ad9889 & testsuite packages for APF9328
+  - remove need of linux-2.6.XX- prefix in armadeus custom kernel patches
+  - Add ad9889ctl tool to buildroot
+  - Install all test scripts in the same dir
+  - Correct small bug in Makefile
+  - Put sdlwater in the right place and install it correctly
+  - Removes no more used alsa-driver package
+  - Makes madplayer work again
+  - upgrade and fix setserial 2.17-45
+  - delete deprecated cygwin patchs
+  - upgrade curl to buildroot libcurl
+  - upgrade package libpcap fixing patch failure
+  - Compiling pod drivers cleaned
+  - uClibc-0.9.29 pretends that spinclocks are available  ("#define _POSIX_SPIN_LOCKS" in posix_opt.h) whereas for ARM, this functionality is currently in development. As a consequence, third party applications looking for this define to internally enable spinlocking  may fail to compile. (As "clocktest" provided by Xenomai). This patch inhibits the faulty define.
