  thanks to Jérôme Duval.

  see the splayMEM example app source.)
• AIFF file writer now silently ignores and clears float output mode.
• Fixed a small memory leak in samples freeing (thanks to S. Michel.)
• Fixed calling the previous position while at position 0 resulting
  in an invalid read. (noticed while running mikmod under valgrind.)

  when a short read is happening, while still returning false.
• Memory reader now respects the iobase value of the reader struct.
  (doesn't change normal behavior, but may help with new features.)
• Updated simpleplayMEM example application.
• Fix return types for MREADER->Seek and MWRITER->Put to be int, and
  not BOOL. (identical functionality but non-misleading.)
• Documentation fixes with relation to free()/MikMod_free().
• Marked the SIMD (SSE2/AltiVec) option as unstable in the makefiles
  and configury/cmake: not recommended until it is fixed properly.
• Provided new Visual Studio 6 and Visual Studio 2005 project files.
  The latter imports into newer Visual Studio versions, e.g. VS2012.
• Fixed some driver version signatures which I missed changing in the
  previous release. (cosmetic change.)... read more

  updates and with floating point output support.
• The multi-platform SDL and OpenAL drivers, if they are compiled, have
  priority over OS-specific hw drivers for MikMod_RegisterAllDrivers().
• New windows xaudio2 driver, originally suggested by 'honza.c', with
  updates, xaudio2.8 support and with floating point output support.
• ALSA driver now supports only the contemporary ALSA 1.0.x versions.

  now named mikmod_static.lib. When compiling against static libmikmod,
  MIKMOD_STATIC should be defined so that dllimport wouldn't be assumed.... read more
