In fact there is another problem just 2 lines below:
*if (b_retain) break;*
It used to be inside *switch{} *block, so break was intended to get out of
switch. During http://trac.videolan.org/vlc/changeset/23654 switch was
eliminated, so now break interrupt *for{}*. For the user it looks like when
VLC is when you are saving preferences from the corresponding window - it
works fine, but when you are close VLC and it does automatic save, it stops
the process after saving first string setting for each section. Attached is
cumulative patch that fixes both problems.
