this is what I'm going for at the moment. The library needs some getting
used to, but after that it's pretty neat.. Guess I'll have to contribute
some documentation back ;) You can find some NOT YET WORKING code at:
https://subversion.verplant.org/collectd/branches/collectd-configfile

Just wanted to let you know that I've decided against including `glib'
in favor of `libconfig' (see above) and portability.

No news from the `thread'-issue due to my limited sparetime.
