xMule 1.9.4 released!

Major preformance increases, omfg! CPU usage has dropped any where from 20 to 20,000 percent. xMule 1.9.4 is roughly 3x faster than previous releases, on average. This also fixes most, if not all, of the known 1.9.x bugs and adds further support for wxWidgets 2.5.3 and above.

Claification for would-be flamers:
The most CPU-intensive sections of xMule have been totally re-implemented and use now roughly 1/200th of the CPU cycles they once required. So if you are downloading 5 files with more than 400 sources each, your total CPU cycles used by xMule will be roughly 10 times less in 1.9.4 than 1.9.3 over a period of 24 hours.

HopeSeekr's contributions:
* FIXED: Internationalisation now works appropriately.
* FIXED: Removed all deprecated wxWidgets mannerisms.
* FIXED: Added headers for support of wxWidgets CVS.
* FIXED: A minor bug in client version displays.
* FIXED: Crypto++ ASM that broke on non-i686. (Recommend using stand-alone
crypto++ for all non-i686 systems).
* FIXED: New malloc ncompatibilities with newly-authorized (29-08-2004)
POSIX 1003.4 (Mandrake 10.1 especially).
* IMPROVED: Drammatically re-implemented CArray for a large performance
increase.
* IMPROVED: Re-implemented downloading sources handling mechanism for a
massive performance increase (2 to 20x less CPU over time).
* Removed Shared Directories selector to prepare for re-implementation.
* Removed excessively-verbose 1.9.3 "misconfigured client" warning.
* ADDED: More robust sourcecode dependency tracking.
* ADDED: Support for custom $CXXFLAGS from the command-line.
On my two 1800mhz AthlonXP systems, xMule compiled with -march=athlon-xp -O2 -funroll-loops, each having 1500 known sources for files they are downloading, have an average CPU usage after 24 hours of 4.3% and 3.0% respectively (which is roughly 10x less than the average of 1.9.3 under similiar conditions).
