+ - Formatting in message.h adjusted to be readable.
+ - psMessage::SetSize() should now correctly handle endian issues.
+ - More bugfixes to network code:
+ -   Multipackets now check the validity of received data before trying
+     to pull sub packet data out of the ether.
+ -   Message warns if Add() functions would overwrite the allocated buffer.
+     Note that at this time messages longer than 2048 bytes will be truncated
+     on the receiving end.  This is not a change from previous behavior, you
+     just get a Debug(LOG_NET) message about it now.  We may want to increase
+     this size (see message.h constructors).
+ -   Message Get*() functions will no longer read beyond the end of the buffer.
+     They will advance the current pointer to the end of the buffer and return 
+     a 0 or NULL (as appropriate for the specific call).  Some message crackers 
+     may not expect this behavior - that's next on the list for review.
