+ - Rename every gras_* function that was in xbt/ to its xbt_
+ counterpart.
+ - Add a heap and a doubly-linked list to xbt
+ - Added a dichotomy to the dictionnaries. make check works as well before
+ so I assume that the patch is correct. I do not know however if things
+ run effectively faster than before now. :)

+ - Introduction of the remote errors.
+ They are the result of a RMI/RPC on the remote machine.
+ ErrCodes being scalar values, you can't get the host on which those
+ errors did happen. Extending the error mecanism as in Gnome is possible.
+ No idea yet whether it is a good idea.

+ - Interface revolution: the Starred Structure Eradication.
+ I used to do typedef struct {} toto_t; and then handle *toto_t.
+ Arnaud (and Oli) didn't like it, and I surrendered. Now, you have:
+ - ???_t is a valid type (builded with typedef)
+ - s_toto_t is a structure (access to fields with .)
+ - s_toto is a structure needing 'struct' keyword to be used
+ - e_toto_t is an enum
+ - toto_t is an 'object' (struct*)
+ Exemple:
+ typedef struct s_toto {} s_toto_t, *toto_t;
+ typedef enum {} e_toto_t;
+ Moreover, only toto_t (and e_toto_t) are public. The rest (mainly
+ s_toto_t) is private.
+
+ - While I was at it, all gras_<obj>_free() functions want a gras_<obj>_t*
+ so that it can set the variable to NULL. It was so for dicts and sets,
+ it changed for dynars.
+
+ - Fix a bunch of memleaks in dict_remove
+ - Fix a bug in sg/server_socket opening: it failed all the time.
+

+ - Speed up dynar lookup operation a bit.
+
+ gras_dynar_get is dead.
+
+ Now, you can choose between gras_dynar_get_cpy (the old gras_dynar_get
+ but should be avoided for efficiency reasons) and gras_dynar_get_ptr
+ (which gives you the address of the stored data).
+
+ gras_dynar_get_as is an helpful macro which allows you to retrieve a
+ copy of the data using an affectation to do the job and not a memcpy.
+
+ int toto = gras_dynar_get_as(dyn,0,int); rewrites itself to
+ int toto = *(int*)gras_dynar_get_ptr(dyn,0);
+
+ It does not really speedup the dynar test because they are
+ setting elements all the time (and look them seldom). But the dict does
+ far more lookup than setting.
+
+ So, this brings the dict_crash test from ~33s to ~25s (200000 elms).

- Allow to (en/dis)able the cycle detection at run time.
Whether we should check for cycle or not is now a property of each
