#426 closed defect (fixed)

Replace bitlbee.conf parsing code

Description

The current INI-like file parsing code is very old and buggy and generates very confusing error messages. It should be replaced, probably by something that uses GLib's GKeyFile library. This does bump up the GLib dependency to version 2.6 or higher though...

I don't like to see this except there's a workaround for glib 2.4, because Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 (CentOS 4) ships glib 2.4.7 and has to stay there of course.

GKeyFile was introduced in GLib 2.14 which is way too new (Aug 2007) so instead I rewrote ini.c. I think this rewrite solves all problems. It caches the file in RAM at parsing time, but who cares? :-)
