Bugzilla is one example of a class of programs called "Defect Tracking
Systems", or, more commonly, "Bug-Tracking Systems". Defect Tracking
Systems allow individual or groups of developers to keep track of
outstanding bugs in their product effectively.
Bugzilla has matured immensely, and now boasts many advanced features.
These include:
* integrated, product-based granular security schema
* inter-bug dependencies and dependency graphing
* advanced reporting capabilities
* a robust, stable RDBMS back-end
* extensive configurability
* a very well-understood and well-thought-out natural bug resolution
protocol
* email, XML, console, and HTTP APIs
* available integration with automated software configuration
management systems, including Perforce and CVS (through the
Bugzilla email interface and checkin/checkout scripts)
* too many more features to list

An Open Source Implementation of the Actor Model in C++.
Actors in CAF are lightweight, consist of only a few hundred bytes, and
are cooperatively managed by a state-of-the-art, work-stealing
scheduler. You can spawn millions of actors if you want to.
CAF offers a network-transparent message passing. Actors can talk to
each other, no matter where they've been spawned. You do the hard part
of implementing your app, CAF takes care of the low-level side of
things. CAF allows you to transparently connect actors running on
different machines and OSes via the network. It integrates multiple
computing devices such as multi-core CPUs, GPGPUs, and even embedded
hardware. You can also create message passing interface for your OpenCL
backends.
trivial-gray-streams is a trivial library which provides an extremely
thin compatibility layer for Gray streams.
From David N. Gray's STREAM-DEFINITION-BY-USER proposal:
"Common Lisp does not provide a standard way for users to define
their own streams for use by the standard I/O functions. This impedes
the development of window systems for Common Lisp because, while
there are standard Common Lisp I/O functions and there are beginning
to be standard window systems, there is no portable way to connect
them together to make a portable Common Lisp window system. There
are also many applications where users might want to define their
own filter streams for doing things like printer device control,
report formatting, character code translation, or encryption/decryption."
This package is compiled with SBCL.
CMPH - C Minimal Perfect Hashing Library
A perfect hash function maps a static set of n keys into a set of m integer
numbers without collisions, where m is greater than or equal to n. If m is equal
to n, the function is called minimal.
Minimal perfect hash functions are widely used for memory efficient storage and
fast retrieval of items from static sets, such as words in natural languages,
reserved words in programming languages or interactive systems, universal
resource locations (URLs) in Web search engines, or item sets in data mining
techniques. Therefore, there are applications for minimal perfect hash functions
in information retrieval systems, database systems, language translation
systems, electronic commerce systems, compilers, operating systems, among
others.
The Boehm-Weiser garbage collection package, for C and C++ -
garbage collection and memory leak detection libraries.
A garbage collector is something which automatically frees malloc'd
memory for you by working out what parts of memory your program
no longer has pointers to. As a result, garbage collectors can also
inform you of memory leaks (if they find memory they can free, it means
you have lost all of your pointers to it, but you didn't free it).
C programs may be linked against either of these, and should run (with
GC or leak detection) without change. C++ programs must include a header
to use garbage collection, though leak detection should work without
such source code modifications. See the man page and header files.
This package only brings Boehm-GC libraries with threading support.
ps: garbage collection is addictive.
CScout is a source code analyzer and refactoring browser for
collections of C programs. It can process workspaces of multiple
projects (we define a project as a collection of C source files
that are linked together) mapping the complexity introduced by the
C preprocessor back into the original C source code files. CScout
takes advantage of modern hardware advances (fast processors and
large memory capacities) to analyze C source code beyond the level
of detail and accuracy provided by current compilers and linkers.
The analysis CScout performs takes into account the identifier
scopes introduced by the C preprocessor and the C language proper
scopes and namespaces. CScout has already been applied on projects
ranging from tens of thousands of lines, like the FreeBSD and
Linux kernels, and the Apache web server.
This free unsupported version of CScout is distributed under the terms
of the CScout Public License, which is available in the accompanying
documentation.

Cproto is a program that generates function prototypes and variable
declarations from C source code. It can also convert function definitions
between the old style and the ANSI C style. This conversion overwrites the
original files, so make a backup copy of your files in case something goes
wrong.
The program isn't confused by complex function definitions as much as other
prototype generators because it uses a yacc generated parser. By ignoring all
the input between braces, I avoided implementing the entire C language grammar.
Cproto is in the public domain, except for the configure script which is
copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. If you have any comments
or find any bugs, please let me know.
Darcs is a free, open source revision control system. It is:
* Distributed: Every user has access to the full command set, removing
boundaries between server and client or committer and non-committers.
* Interactive: Darcs is easy to learn and efficient to use because it
asks you questions in response to simple commands, giving you choices in
your work flow. You can choose to record one change in a file, while
ignoring another. As you update from upstream, you can review each patch
name, even the full "diff" for interesting patches.
* Smart: Originally developed by physicist David Roundy, darcs is based
on a unique algebra of patches.
This smartness lets you respond to changing demands in ways that would
otherwise not be possible. Learn more about spontaneous branches with
darcs.
