 This version has been developed and tested this week.  Some additional
 features are enabled (GL2PS, N_WAY_ARRAYS).  The post-destroot phase is
 now coded for specifically for each variant that requires it (see the
 hacks in the examples and testing variants to set the installation paths,
 copy files, and reset the rpath for binaries; I wish there were an easier
 way to patch the CMakeLists.txt files for the installation of examples and
 testing, but I don't have time to figure that out).

 Still lots of work to be done on the language wrapping (java, tcl, python)
 and other rendering variants (carbon, x11; I suppose x11 has a higher
 priority than carbon).  With regard to the x11, the previous commit
 contained two variants (x11, mesaOpenGL) that are now rolled into one
 variant (x11).  With regard to the language wrappers, there are now two
 variants for python25 and python26 (nothing yet for python30 - that may be
 too adventurous).  The tcl variants were renamed to tcl (macports) and
 tcl_apple.

 There are numerous variants for databases, etc. and all of them require
 testing and clarification of their dependencies.
