Ithamar R. Adema b0cef9d956 ARM/docs: add a TODO with the major open issues for this port.
Personally I find KDL hangman the biggest blocker, but oh well...

Oliver Tappe 546208a539 More catalog-related cleanup.
* rename B_TRANSLATE_CONTEXT to B_TRANSLATION_CONTEXT and
  B_TRANSLATE_WITH_CONTEXT to B_TRANSLATE_CONTEXT, squashing a TODO
* adjust all uses of both macros in Haiku's source tree
* use correct header guard for collecting/Catalog.h

The renamed macros require adjustments to all external applications
using catalogs.

François Revol 478dc9887e PPC: Preliminary untested boot support for Common Firmware Environment
CFE is used in the upcoming Amiga X-1000 dualcore PPC board.
* Largely inspired by the OF and U-Boot code.

* The loader builds but I don't have a machine to test it. Anyone interested?

Oliver Tappe 571d840abf * dropped svn:keywords property from all files that carried it
to avoid recurring problems during migration of subversion checkouts
  (restored binary files that were garbled by subversions during checkout)
* added appropriate svn:mime-type property for problematic (binary) files
* removed a single (mistyped) svn:mimetype property 
* dropped svn:eol-style property for cleanup (they all contained 'native')

Ingo Weinhold 6bfd06d1ff BRoster::Launch() eventually launches the application in question
in several steps:
1. early pre-registration with the registrar ("I wanna launch the
   app, make sure noone interferes.")
2. load the app image
3. finish pre-registration with the registrar ("I have launched
   the app, here is its team ID.")
4. start app main thread
5. send "on launch" messages to the app (argv, refs, others)

If the app is already running or being launched, 1. fails with a
conclusive error code and returns the team ID and the pre-registration
token of the app. Steps 2 - 4 are skipped and only the messages are
delivered using the team ID returned by 1.

This change fixes a race condition: The failed early pre-registration
request obviously cannot return the team ID, if the other thread
launching the app has not finished step 3 yet. Thus the argv/refs
message would not get delivered and Launch() would not return the
correct team ID.

Now we wait for the pre-registration to be finished in this case, using
the former _IsAppPreRegistered() mechanism, which already provided
such a waiting feature for one request. It has been extended to
accomodate an arbitrary number of waiting requests and renamed to
_IsAppRegistered().

This fixed bug #763.
