FSF addresses used in PA sources are no longer valid and rpmlint
generates numerous warnings during packaging because of this.
This patch changes all FSF addresses to FSF web page according to
the GPL how-to: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html

building PA with -O0 leads to test failure in mix-test on i386
issue reported by Felipe, see
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pulseaudio-discuss/2014-August/021406.html
the problem is the value 0xbeffbd7f: when byte-swapped it becomes 0x7fbdffbe and according
to IEEE-754 represents a signalling NaN (starting with s111 1111 10, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NaN)
when this value is assigned to a floating point register, it becomes 0x7ffdffbe, representing
a quiet NaN (starting with s111 1111 11) -- a signalling NaN is turned into a quiet NaN!
so PA_FLOAT32_SWAP(PA_FLOAT32_SWAP(x)) != x for certain values, uhuh!
the following test code can be used; due to volatile, it will always demonstrate the issue;
without volatile, it depends on the optimization level (i386, 32-bit, gcc 4.9):
// snip
static inline float PA_FLOAT32_SWAP(float x) {
union {
float f;
uint32_t u;
} t;
t.f = x;
t.u = bswap_32(t.u);
return t.f;
}
int main() {
unsigned x = 0xbeffbd7f;
volatile float f = PA_FLOAT32_SWAP(*(float *)&x);
printf("%08x %08x %08x %f\n", 0xbeffbd7f, *(unsigned *)&f, bswap_32(*(unsigned *)&f), f);
}
// snip
the problem goes away with optimization when no temporary floating point registers are used
the proposed solution is to avoid passing swapped floating point data in a
float; this is done with new functions PA_READ_FLOAT32RE() and PA_WRITE_FLOAT32RE()
which use uint32_t to dereference a pointer and byte-swap the data, hence no temporary
float variable is used
also delete PA_FLOAT32_TO_LE()/_BE(), not used

Instead of spilling thousands of lines of output, make check now runs the
test-suite in about 100 lines or so. If running under make check, the output of
tests is reduced. The MAKE_CHECK environment variable is used for this, so that
when running the test manually, the full output is still shown. Furthermore,
pa_log is used consistently instead of printf, so that all test output goes to
stderr by default. Colored output from make check goes to stdout.
This has been broken since c376ac5920 when run
without any arguments. Passing in -v (verbose) caused the test to work fine.
I think this oversight is just a thinko in the original work but it obviously
broke 'make check' and thus distcheck.
Also fix a couple compiler warnings.
Get rid of the liboil dependency and reimplement the liboil functions with an
equivalent C implementation. Note that most of these functions are deprecated in
liboil and that none of them had any optimisations. We can further specialize
our handrolled versions for some extra speedups.
