Gereric lists have seen a lot of extension by now.

Lists of lists have been implemented and PM has been ported, but only partly
tested.

pm_data_structures.c has been reduced from 314K to 98K with the same
functionality and interfaces, .o from 91K to 36K. The generic list
implementation is smaller than the gain even in PM only, so it is certainly
worth it.

However, there is no way of auto-updating an existing configuration, what
keeps me from porting ACL and AUTH, too. Maybe for 2.0...
