Yes, 0.9.6 is newer than 1.0.0, ergo PORTEPOCH needs to be bumped. The visualization plugins menu may crash the player, but since most of the code is such a mess I'm not going to bother with it until 1.0 comes out.
State Changed From-To: open->closed Committed, thanks! However, I kept patch-ltmain.sh as it is needed to fix thread lockups on 5.X systems still using libc_r.
