Subject: Take all code from Asko Kauppi's SVN server, and push it here so that
the github repository becomes the official Lanes source codebase.
Note that Asko's SVN server holds version 2.0.9, whereas this is version 2.0.10, but I don't see any real need to update SVN if it is to become deprecated.
Next steps:
- upgrade the rockspec to the latest version
- make the html help available online somewhere

+CHANGE 21 (bugfixes) BGe 3-Jan-2011:
+ Several fixes by Martin Krpan:
+ - linda_send was waiting on the wrong signal
+ - buildfix when using i586-mingw32msvc-gcc cross compiler
+ - lanes_h:cancel() returns a boolean as it should
+ - timers could get blocked sometimes because they were initialized with negative values
+ - prepare_timeout could generate an illegal setting
+
+CHANGE 20 BGe 3-Dec-2010:
+ Enable to specify a string as lane code instead of a function so that we dont use lua_dump, which
+ isn't supported by LuaJIT.
+
+CHANGE 19 BGe 2-Dec-2010:
+ No longer rely on global function 'tostring' to generate unique identifiers when caching data being transfered through la linda. Should fix a compatilibity issue with LuaJIT2.
+
+CHANGE 18 BGe 6-Oct-2010:
+ Fixed 'memory leak' in some situations where a free running lane is collected before application shutdown
+ A bit of code cleanup
+
+CHANGE 17 BGe 21-Sept-2010:
+ Fixed stupid compilation errors.
+
+CHANGE 16 PLM 24-Aug-2010:
+ Releasing memory at gc / atexit.
+ Finalizers actually get error strings.
+ Fixed missing argument propagation in lane:cancel
+ Added variable threadName sent trough globals-table. Set in s_lane, and in debuggers on windows.
+ Added argument checking for linda-objects, where missing them caused crashes.

+CHANGE 15 (minor) BGe 27-Jul-2010:
+ Version bump for a true upgrade release (2.0.4 package was only a renamed 2.0.3)
+
+CHANGE 14 (bug fix) BGe 09-Jul-2010:
+ Fixed lane status to be correctly returned as "waiting" when it should.
+
+CHANGE 13 (fix for multithreaded host apps) AKa 24-Jun-2009:
+ <borisusun-at-gmail> mentioned Lanes expects the host application to be singlethreaded,
+ and there are troubles if Lanes is used from multiple threads, opened by the host
+ (before requiring Lanes). This is true, and fix should now be in place.

CHANGE 12 (bug fix on Windows, 2.0.3) AKa 25-Jan-2009:

CHANGE 8 (bug fix) AKa 26-Oct-2008:
Avoids occasional segfault at process exit (on multicore CPUs). Does this
by keeping track of "free running" threads (s.a. the time thread) and
