xine-ui 0.99.3 xmas edition

Hi all,

Following our tradition of December releases, the new xine-ui,
version 0.99.3 (xmas edition) is now available for download.

This release focus is on stability. Several crashes and glitches
have been found and fixed. Users of xine-lib rc8 should upgrade
in order to see meta tags correctly since their are now reported
as UTF-8 to frontends.

As usual, you can download from

The MD5 sum of this release is:
