Remarks:
The original code was not designed to support moving obstacles so I had to introduce some velocity constraints into the code to prevent smoke from exploding. If this causes problems with "fire" emulation, please let me know.
Wavelet tile generation code was reading outside of array bounds, and as a
result could give a noise.wavelets file with nan values. Now that problem
is fixed, and existing files with nan are ignored.
blender_add_lib now takes a separate include argument to suppress warnings in system includes (mostly ffmpeg & python).
also only build wm_apple.c on apple+carbon configuration.
- missing break in operator context switch meant RGN_TYPE_CHANNELS was always being overwritten with RGN_TYPE_PREVIEW when calling operators (from r26692)
globbing vs explicit is discussed here.

Practical implications are:
- developers need to keep CMakeLists.txt files up to date.
- Users wont get strange linking errors if they build after a file is added, since CMake detects CMakeLists.txt is modified and automatically reconfigure.
* gameplayer is now probably not going to build without PNG turned ON.
To fix that it would be necessary to use #ifndef NOPNG around the GPC_Canvas::MakeScreenShot.
Since I don't this function it's working in 2.5 yet it's better to wait for that before doing it.
* Smoke got it's own thread loop now and can be esc'ed now
* Apple OpenMP bug workaround until they fix the GCC (couldn't test this one)
* removing some "static" keyword to prevent crashing on frame display
* should also fix problems with wavelet.noise crashing (Bug #20710)
Fluid:
* sleep delay has been reduced to be more responsive
* Fluid progress is displayed in percent using the mouse cursor (like smoke)
* Better (and windows enabled) OpenMP handling (> 2x-5x speed)
* More Volumetric Texture mapping options (heat, etc) <-- Matt if that's not to your liking, just revert that part, it's separate anyway
* Initial velocity taken from particle settings (no more slow starting)
* Option to select compression method (there seem to be a bug in my high compression usage, at least it's been reported to result in exploding smoke - better use low compression for the time being)
It's been tested since a while but as usual please report any (new!) bugs. ;-)
