This build was never complete and also was not maintained probebly.
It is also dropped in favour of meson which is cool, merged, works & is fast.

it was a lot of if cases before now it's an array with min version
parameters and globs for matching drivers etc. - much cleaner and
neater to afdd things to the whtielist now.
a new shiny buildtool that currently completes in the total of ~ 4 min..
1 min. conf time
2:30 min. build time
Where autotools takes:
1:50 min. conf time
3:40 min. build time.
meson was taken because it went quite good for enlightenment, and is a traction gaining system that is also used by other mayor projects. Additionally, the DSL that is defined my meson makes the configuration of the builds a lot easier to read.
Further informations can be gathered from the README.meson
Right now, bindings & windows support are missing.
It is highly recommented to use meson 0.48 due to optimizations in meson
that reduced the time the meson call would need.

Depends on D7011
This fixes cycles of init/shutdown/init where ecore event types would
become invalid, since they are now stored in a dynamic array rather than
a statically stored array.
The risk here is that if a module of EFL tends to init/shutdown in a
"normal" scenario then the event type array will grow in a leaking
manner. This could be fixed by resetting those event ID's only when the
loop actually exits (EFL_EVENT_DEL on the main loop). I'm not using
EFL_EVENT_DEL in this patch as this would add too many event callbacks
to the main loop object, which may result in slightly slower event calls
to it, affecting the overall performance.
Summary: assignment to local variable "ret" has no meaning as it is not used after assignment. So, removing assignment operation to avoid warning.

in some cases loading an xmodmap on enlightenment startup can trigger an infinite
number of identical events which hard locks the xserver for a very, very long time
@fix
This happens in E with software compositing, since E's commit
5702f0975e890f07cfb. E should be fixed shortly but segv is not
acceptable. Without segv E is still massively broken so it's
not like the bug would be hidden (large black areas in windows,
after switch vdesks with enough windows).
it turns out that xlib is going to copy the complete struct into
something internal. This might lead to the condition that a uninitalized
value might be part of the struct, and when later the struct is read
again the code might do wrong stuff since that value could be set now to
a randomly other meaningfull value.
This turned out on me in e as i could not write any letters like ßöäü,
since that lead to a not returning call to _XReply internal of xlib.
Dugging that showed that xlib was waiting on a reply of a call that
never got executed, and the XEvent it is waiting on just contians a
randomly correct value.

all had no atom fetches! fix..
@fix
as per mailing list discussion about dropping xcb support now. it
hasn't been complete for a long time, thus not recommented for being
turned on. as we are moving to a wayland world xcbmakes even less
sense. as agreed, time to clean up a bit and remove a distraction as
well as not well tested code. this also updates po's too.
@feature
prctl allows us on some platforms to request a thread be woken up more
agressively e.g. due to a timeout bu setting timerslack. since we use
a dedicated thread just for vsync events, this is a very good idea to
ask the kernel to be as exact as possible for this thread as it only
wakes up once per frame (or should only) and accuracy is important. so
use this.
also improve prctl checks to be more explicit in configure.ac and use
these ifdefs in ecore exe too where prctl is used as well.
@feature
set ECORE_ANIMATOR_SKIP to skip queued animtor ticks if multiple are
in the pipeline. optional and not on by default. i would think its not
a good idea to skip these animator ticks and skipping/deferring is a
job higher up.
@feature
so ecore_x_vsync as a tool uses glx for nvidia drivers plut "wait for
vblank" extensions to try vsync "sync". the problem is this is flakey
because the drivers may or may not continue vsyncing after screen off
or syspend/resume or vt changes and all the workarounds dont seem to
be reliable, so since this causes this to be disabled, no point
keeping all the code and build stuff around, so remove this "unused
junk" we have in the tree.
This is for Wacom graphics tablets (with a pen).
The raw data sent by ecore to evas (and then to apps) is pretty
useless as it's not normalized, and apps have no way of knowing the
dimensions of the tablet, without themselves opening the device
(we don't know nor expose the path to the device).
This is for Xi2 only for now, as Wayland support hasn't been done
yet.
The intent is to deprecate LABEL_X and LABEL_Y. I'm not sure yet
if the normalized value is useful or not (it would seem we may not
be able to provide this info in Wayland).
The new WINDOW_X, WINDOW_Y labels will be used in the new event
type (Efl.Event.Pointer). Normalized values are not exposed yet,
let's decide if we want them or not first (based on what can be
done in Wayland space).
@feature
Mice in X with xi2 send Axis events which are badly defined,
and carry basically useless information, as we also receive
proper mouse events. Notably, all mice input events are
"Rel something" but in fact they are absolute values (even
the wheel information is a counter increasing every time you
scroll).
This should not break any application as such axis events
carried only values with label ECORE_AXIS_LABEL_UNKNOWN.
This also fixes a leak when n == 0 (no "valuator" found
in the list, this used to be unlikely, now happens at every
mouse event).
This fixes argb windows transparency in E software compositor.
My current problem is that I have no idea what changed, why this
is needed now, and how things could actually work before.
Fixes T4389
@fix
lib/ecore_x/xcb/ecore_xcb_icccm.c: In function ‘ecore_x_icccm_name_class_set’:
lib/ecore_x/xcb/ecore_xcb_icccm.c:320:11: warning: ‘length_name’ may be used uninitialized in this
function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
s += length_name + 1;
Looking at the code this is indeed possible so better play safe here.
so e is being stupid and creating an ecore-x image forevery single
window if in x11 mode if it needs it or not. this results in having ti
allocate an actual x image and shm segments. work around this and get
bit order from somewhere else than the x image itself thus avoiding
the allocation until a real get or put is done.
@fix
so our sysv shm segments were both over-permissive (nothing bad
really, just other users could read and write to/from our pixel data
destined for the screen... they could do this to x11 directly anyway
so no real issue), but be more restrictive and use 0600 as xserver
runs as root so can read/write anyway and we only want our own uid
access. but even more - fix our shm segment flushing to not keep lots
of segments floating about like a bad smell when we don't need them.
we had a cache but it wasnt flushed when it should be since async
rendering turned up. this fixes that and we're back to agressively
flushing them out when idle.
@fix
Summary:
Well mostly, it seems there is an issue with multi-key events and
enlightenment. Let's merge this first before opening a ticket.
