	bug in reading state.  Adds GSet, an abstraction for set that may
	use a GSList or GPtrArray as the implementation.  Implements the
	core of prediction.

	* TODO, src/conf.c, src/conf.h, src/confkeys.h,
	src/preload.conf.debug, src/preload.conf.in, src/proc.c: Added
	configuration keys to whitelist/blacklist files that should be

2005-08-28   Behdad Esfahbod

	* README: Typo fixed.

	src/log.c, src/log.h, src/preload.8.i, src/preload.c,
	src/preload.h: Better log and signal handling, all documented in
	the man page too.

2005-08-28   Behdad Esfahbod

	* README, preload.spec.in, preload.sysconfig, src/.cvsignore,

	Moreover, kill -USR2 now instructs the daemon to save state,
	instead of spewing out lots of nonsense in the log.
