// Revision 1.10  1998/11/07 19:07:03  curt
// Enable release builds using the --without-logging option to the configure
// script.  Also a couple log message cleanups, plus some C to C++ comment
// conversion.
//
// Revision 1.9  1998/11/06 21:17:26  curt
// Converted to new logstream debugging facility.  This allows release
// builds with no messages at all (and no performance impact) by using
// the -DFG_NDEBUG flag.
//
// Revision 1.8  1998/04/25 22:06:23  curt
// Edited cvs log messages in source files ... bad bad bad!
//
// Revision 1.7  1998/04/24 00:43:13  curt
// Wrapped "#include <config.h>" in "#ifdef HAVE_CONFIG_H"
//
// Revision 1.6  1998/04/18 03:53:42  curt
// Miscellaneous Tweaks.
//
// Revision 1.5  1998/04/03 22:10:29  curt
// Converting to Gnu autoconf system.
//
// Revision 1.4  1998/02/03 23:20:28  curt
// Lots of little tweaks to fix various consistency problems discovered by
// Solaris' CC.  Fixed a bug in fg_debug.c with how the fgPrintf() wrapper
// passed arguments along to the real printf().  Also incorporated HUD changes
// by Michele America.
//
// Revision 1.3  1998/01/27 00:47:59  curt
// Incorporated Paul Bleisch's <pbleisch@acm.org> new debug message
// system and commandline/config file processing code.
//
// Revision 1.2  1997/12/30 20:47:48  curt
// Integrated new event manager with subsystem initializations.
//
// Revision 1.1  1997/07/30 16:04:09  curt
// Moved random routines from Utils/ to Math/
//
// Revision 1.1  1997/07/19 22:31:57  curt
// Initial revision.
