[LAD] [ANN] QmidiNet 0.1.2 released!

A pretty old and terribly overdue JACK MIDI crash bug as been fixed.
Hopefully at last. Ones who've been using the ALSA-MIDI (aka. ALSA
Sequencer) interface exclusively don't need to worry. All the rest
please apply ;)

   QmidiNet 0.1.2 released!

Have fun!

   QmidiNet [1] is a MIDI network gateway application that sends and
receives MIDI data (ALSA-MIDI and JACK-MIDI) over the network, using
UDP/IP multicast. Inspired by multimidicast [2] and designed to be
compatible with ipMIDI [3] for Windows.

Change-log:

- JACK MIDI in-bound buffering was originally flawed and often the cause
for severe random crashes, mostly due to memory corruption, now
hopefully fixed.
- Changed order of JACK MIDI and UDP socket initialization, hoping the
later is always owned by the current genuine process.
- JACK MIDI interface were sinking all incoming events into the the
first port, now fixed (heads up from Chris Goddard, thanks).
- Make(ing) -jN parallel builds now available for the masses.
- Fixed Makefile.in handling of installation directories to the
configure script eg. --datadir.
- Main context menu simple no-brainer reordering.
