Alleyoop 0.7.0

Application
===========
Alleyoop 0.7.0  "Keepin' it real."
Description
===========
Alleyoop is a GNOME frontend to the Valgrind memory checker.
Features include a right-click context menu to intelligently 
suppress errors or launch an editor on the source file/jumping 
to the exact line of the error condition. A searchbar at the
top of the viewer can be used to limit the viewable errors
to those that match the regex criteria entered. Also 
included is a fully functional Suppressions editor.
Enhancements
============
- Added the ability to choose which Valgrind 'skin' to use
  (currently only memcheck and addrcheck are fully supported). This
  preference can be chosen either as a command-line argument
  (--skin=[memcheck,adrcheck]) or by using the "Skins" menu.
- Added support for the newer Valgrind (1.9.5) suppressions file
  format (the parser remains backwards compatable with the older 1.0.x
  format as well).
Fixes
=====
- Build on Linux distributions which do not have a libpopt that
  define POPT_TABLEEND.
- When the user opens the suppressions list, load the file contents
  instead of doing nothing. :-)
