+ * New SIMIX network module. Provides:
+ - Mailbox: rendez-vous mecanism to find with who you want to speak
+ - Synchronous send/recv: easier and hopefully faster since the
+ logic is handled in the maestro process directly now
+ - Asynchronous send/recv: you dreamt of it? It's here now
+ Too bad that nobody cared enough to propagate the change to MSG.
+ * Add semaphores as SIMIX synchronization mechanism.
SimDag:
* new function SD_daxload(char*) to load a DAX file
* Fix #8569: XBT/synchro.h has redundant declarations

Introduce a MSG_TIMEOUT_FAILURE return code and use it consistently.
+ * Integrate patch #8636: Obey DESTDIR when installing documentation.
+ Thanks to Robson Peixoto.
+ * Fix a vicious bug in dictionaries inducing that some elements were
+ not freed on xbt_dict_free()
