queries. This also fixes some issues with the carrier and the croaser
altitude values that is used when no hit is found.
Include some ifdefed out debugging code, that might be interresting.

Background are problems modeling the rotax 912 engine. The idle speed
of the real engine is about half of the speed I could achieve with the
default minimum manifold pressure. While on ground I can switch off
the engine by pulling the throttle. The audible difference between the
different minimum idle speed (real vs. simulated) is extreme. With the
patch I get quite realistic sound. For the rotax engine I use
min-throttle="0.05" which is half of the former default value.
This gets rid of a lot of messy code. Although the performance is about
the same as the old code, there is the possibility of a big performance
boost if/when the polytope intersector is taught about KD trees.
* experimental clean-up / reduction on two of the FG headers:
(I'm going to await feedback on the developers list before doing more of
these, to avoiding going over files multiple times, but in principle it
seems pretty straightforward.)
* final fixes for SG_USING_STD removal
- this exposed a bizarre issue on Mac where dragging in <AGL/agl.h> in
extensions.hxx was pulling in all of Carbon to the global namespace
- very scary. As a result, I now need to explicitly include CoreFoundation
in fg_init.cxx.
- change SG_USING_STD(x) to using std::x
SimGear change. It changes all the SG_xxxx to be the 'real' includes, and gets
rid of many #ifdef SG_HAVE_STD_INCLUDES. As an added bonus, rather than
replacing 'SG_USING_NAMESPACE(std)' with 'using namespace std', I just fixed
the small number of places to use std:: explicitly. So we're no longer polluting
the global namespace with the entire contents of std, in many cases.
There is one more 'mechanical' change to come - getting rid of SG_USING_STD(X),
but I want to keep that separate from everything else. (There's another
mechnical change, replacing <math.h> with <cmath> and so on *everywhere*, but
one step at a time)
PLETE_FUNCTIONAL from SimGear and FlightGear.
As a result, SG_HAVE_STD_INCLUDES is now *always* set, so I will get the boring
fixes for that done, but separately. I'm still auditing the other things in comp
ilers.h - there's a lot that can die now BORLAND is gone.
