	  operator float() to Setting; note that these may cause loss of
	  precision since the actual values are stored internally as long
	  and double, respectively.

	* libconfig.h - added config_setting_name() macro

	* libconfig.c - maintain two lists of children at each node; a sorted
	  list and an unsorted list (to preserve the order of the settings as
	  they appear in the file).

	  be in column 0 to be recognized as a comment. Added support for C
	  and C++ style comments.
