GPU: If a custom-sized layer is to be rendered first, GPUEngineBase::_TransitionLineNativeToCustom() will do a line clear instead of an upscaled line copy.
...
- Since this is a very common occurrence in many games, and since doing a clear is faster than doing an upscaled copy, this should give a small performance improvement for the larger framebuffer sizes.

SoftRasterizer: Do some multithreading improvements, and also clean up and refactor RasterizerUnit.
...
- Completely encapsulate all stray global variables into the SoftRasterizer class where they belong.
- Framebuffer clears are now fully multithreaded, significantly improving clearing performance.
- Doing multithreaded texture loads and vertex calculations now requires a minimum of 2 threads, down from 4 threads.
- The maximum amount of SoftRasterizer threads has been increased from 16 to 32.

GPU: Instead of using fixed double-buffered output framebuffers, allow clients to request any number of framebuffer pages between 1 and 8.
...
- For all non-Cocoa ports, reduce the number of framebuffer pages from 2 to 1, reducing the memory usage for those ports.
- For the Cocoa port, increase the number of framebuffer pages from 2 to 3 in preparation for a new triple-buffered display scheme.

Update README.LIN (autogen.sh, dependencies)
...
I found these dependencies harder to figure out than usual,
since I'm used to installing packages with pregenerated `configure` scripts.
In particular if `glib` is missing then `configure` will generate with unexpanded macros, which is confusing.
This extra paragraph should be helpful for others.
Thanks for a great program :)
