the user by default cannot create globally shared objects. This
becomes a problem when protected application mode is turned off
for keyboard and mouse detection. Basically all of the components
would start up and fail to create the shared memory segment
and report the error through stderr which most people don't look
at by default.
The client is now the only component that is allowed to create the
shared memory segment, if creating the global segment fails it'll
create a local one instead. Both the tray and manager now just attach
to the existing segment, first trying the global one then the local
one.

- scheduler: fix bug in adaptive replication:
if send an unreplicated job to untrusted host,
set both wu.target_nresults and wu.min_quorum to app.target_nresults.

A file upload sends request.
The network is down, and something (e.g. a router)
sends a long (> 4KB) error page.
This overruns the 4KB buffer of HTTP_OP::req1.
Solution: keep track of the size of the buffer,
and don't overrun it.
Also move the body of a huge for loop into a separate function.
From Ian Hay.

- client: better messages reporting coprocessors

libcudart{32,64}.so is bundled with client.
client loads it and if successful calls the device-query functions.
- client, Linux: append the current directory
(i.e., the BOINC data directory) to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH for apps.
This goes after the project dir and the slot dir.
This lets apps link to libcudartX.so.
NOTE: this is not recommended; better to include it with your app.
- client: allow for multiple messages from coproc probing
- fixed indentation in cs_platforms.C

1) the assimilator creates a job_summary_WUID file saying
- what host did the job
- error status if any
- info about missing output files
2) all output files are now optional.
3) the assimilator deletes temp files (templates, job dir file)

This tells the sample bitwise validator to ignore this file.

- client: change CUDA detection on Linux and Mac.
Look for libcuda.so in /usr/lib/nvidia and /usr/lib64/nvidia.
If we find it, assume that libcudart is in the library path.

don't create shmem segs in global name space.
Hopefully this will fix a bug
(on Vista, UAC off, non-protected install)
where apps fail to attach to shmem.

The problem: the variable ordered_scheduled_results
has a list of pointers to RESULTs.
These pointers become dangling when the project is detached.
It's not sufficient to do schedule_cpus() because this returns
immediately if # projects == 0.
So clear the list directly.
Rom: please port to 6.2

This supports apps that can do variable amounts of computing;
they can boinc_finish() if their deadline is near.

and clear all timeout variables.
This should fix the situation where, say:
1) the user sets the system clock forward by a year;
2) all projects get their min_rpc_time set;
3) the user sets the system clock back to the correct time.
Previously, BOINC would not do anything for a year.
Note: a restart of BOINC is required to fix things.
It would be harder to do this on the fly.

This prevents a DoS by sending <auth1> over and over,
filling the send buffer and eventually causing the client to block.
