I don't follow this argument.  Adding a new source code file and
registering it in Makefile.am belongs together, that's an operation
that cannot be splitted.

Only when you require modifications to other parts of MPD as
preparation for your feature, then this must be a separate commit.
For example, when you need one more parameter/method in an existing
API declaration or function prototype, or when you add another generic
utility library.

Tell me when you feel it should be merged, and then I'll review the
branch you cleaned up.  It's somewhat cumbersome to review this branch
in the current form.  Hint: learn about stgit.
