Righto - please find attached an updated patch. Tested the mghttpd01 app
successfully under psim and on MVME3100 hardware (both powerpc).

If this does get committed, it'd be nice to include a warning of the
interface changes on the Wiki (which I'm happy to do :-)). Perhaps the
following (from the commit message, not an exhaustive list of
differences) would do?
____

Note that the API's changed, for example:
  - A ''struct mg_callbacks'' must now be provided to ''mg_start()''. Initialise members to ''NULL'' to disable various types of callbacks
  - Callback interfaces have changed significantly in general
  - The short form of options (e.g., "u" instead of "run_as_user") are no longer available (upstream)
  - The "max_request_size" options has been removed
____

[Note: Not supplying a callback structure correctly is particularly
nasty. Passing in NULL, as used to be acceptable, is unchecked by
mg_start() and will cause a NULL-pointer dereference and bollocks
callback pointers, which'll cause fun some time later when they're used!
]

Cheers!
