[LAA] Qsynth 0.3.6 slip release!

Season greetings! It's spring-cleaning time once again. Dust has severely piled up and brand old mite is already lurking around. That's the bad news. Good news are there are plans for this FluidSynth gooey front-end, you know it's about Qsynth. Alas, plans are follow today's "slip release" though. Finally, you may say. Not that there's any big (not even small) new features being slung out today. In fact, there's just a lousy couple of the same old crap. Never mind. Big plans are all about getting some channel controllers--also known as generators--into the picture. Yes, finally. It means amplitude, filter envelope generators, LFO modulators, knobs and sliders gore fest and what not. I hear you thinking that's all what a synth is about. And you're damn right. Dropping an initial, "synth" has been in the name all this time hasn't it? Right, it has been a pretty old plan, ever since early dawn. Well, it still is... a plan. As always, I won't make any promises, which would be a terrible thing to do, specially from one who keeps calling himself the "über-procrastinator". Yeah, I'm sure you know me from previous auto-proclamations. Back to subject at hand, there it is. Qsynth 0.3.6 slipped away from the dust!

Both were causing first shutdown/logout attempt to abort. Not anymore, hopefully ;). - libX11 is now being added explicitly to the build link phase, as seen necessary on some bleeding-edge distros eg. Fedora 13, Debian 6. - General standard dialog buttons layout is now in place. - CMake build system. It was silently available in 0.3.5, but now it is officially unveiled. - Fixed a couple of dangling pointers. - Mac OSX: Enabled the MIDI name Id option for CoreMIDI driver ports, added the icon to the app bundle.
