        - extended upper_case so that it draws graphics
            (text, image, bouncing ball)
            NOTE: to get this to work, you have to put in your build dir:
                - file called "logo.jpg" (the image)
                - Helvetica.txf
                - a file called "in" (any old text)
        - added text functions to library

        - debugged and updated "wrapper" program.
            It works now, more or less, on Windows.
            - wrapper no longer copies input/output files.
                You must use the <copy_file/> attribute
                in the file reference instead.
            - attempted to have wrapper pass stderr handle to worker
                (Windows).  Doesn't work yet.

        - wrapper: pass wrapper's command-line args to application,
            after those in the job file (if any).
            This lets you pass different command-line args to the app
            for different workunits,
            without creating a new app version per workunit.
    
        NOTE: actually, I don't think this is necessary;
        the job file can be part of the workunit, not part of the app version.

        - wrapper: if a child exits with nonzero status X,
            call boinc_finish() with ERR_CHILD_FAILED rather than X.
            If X is zero in the low-order byte
            (e.g. if the program isn't executable)
            the BOINC client will restart us, which isn't what we want.

    	- multi-thread: the Windows version was running unexpectedly fast.
    		It turned out that the VS2005 C++ compiler was noticing
    		that giga_flop() didn't use any inputs or globals,
    		so it was caching its value after the first run.
    		Very impressive!

        - multi_thread: suspend/resume didn't work in the Unix implementation.
            REMINDER TO SELF: you can't suspend or resume pthreads - period.
            So I changed things so that in the Unix implementation,
            we fork a second process, in which the threads run.
            The first process handles suspend/resume messages
            by signaling the 2nd process.
            The 2nd process generates system messages (frac done, CPU time)

            1) each task can include a <weight> (double, default=1).
                The task's contribution to total fraction done is
                proportional to the weight.
            2) each task can include a <checkpoint_filename> (string)
                This names a checkpoint file used by the app.
                If its mod time changes, we'll assume a checkpoint
                has been done and notify the client.
