! 
! some bug fixes according to gcc 4.3.1 warnings (missing parentheses; 
! in kineticTerms.cpp and equilibriumTerms.cpp).
! 
! The graphical user interface of EChem++ seems to have a problem. This has 
! already been observed on openSUSE 10.3 (Frank Breher, reproduced by 
! Steffi Benthin), and now appears also on 11.0. The program starts and 
! then crashes with a segmentation fault deep in some of the graphic routines.
! On some installations even the X system is killed.
! 
! Still even to compile under openSUSE 11.0 on a x86_64 system with both 
! 32bit and 64bit libraries a couple of changes had to be made, mostly 
! with regard to the build system.
! First, a recent version of libtool (2.2.6a) was installed. Since this is 
! in parallel to the system version 1.5.26, the script runme_cvs.sh had
! to be changed. This could be deleted later, when only 2.2.6 is present in
! the system paths. (done, 20.04.2009)
! Moreover, ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS= -I m4 was added to the Makefile.am 
! in the EChem++ root directory, according to the libtoolize documentation. 
! This causes macro definition files to be placed in subdirectory m4. At
! present these are all generated files, so there is no need to add m4 to
! the cvs tree, however, this could change later.
! All aclocal.m4 needed to be deleted, in order to avoid version inconsistencies.
! 
! With the new libtool in place, the code did compile, but not link. Obviously,
! there was an incorrect reference to libgmp and to some of the X libraries 
! (first: libXi.so), which were taken from /usr/lib rather than /usr/lib64. 
! This caused `wrong format' errors. These could be avoided by adding 
! `-L/usr/lib64 -L/usr/lib' to variable GUI_LDFLAGS in the GUI configure.in file.
! This variable is later used in the ModSim Makefile.am.
! 
! Still, with all these changes, the segfault problem mentioned above, occurs.
! 
! 20.04.2009
! 
! The following applies to an openSUSE 11.0 system on a x86_64 architecture.
! 
! After de-installation of the system libtool (1.5.26) and installation of 
! libtool 2.2.6a as root in /usr/local, the runme script runme_cvs_libtool2.2.6.sh
! could be deleted. After reconfiguration EChem++ compiles and links.
! 
! Furthermore, VTK version 4.4.2 (old, I had a tar file still lying around) was
! installed. With gcc 4.3.1, I had to change the include directives for <string> 
! into <cstring> in VTK/Utilities/DICOMParser/DICOMFile.cxx (line 26), DICOMParser.cxx (line 39) and DICOMAppHelper.cxx (line 34) to get it compiled.
! Still, the segmentation fault problem remains, but it can be solved by using
! the correct path to the new VTK libraries in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable BEFORE
! the path to the more recent one.
! 
! Simulations can be done, but some of the texts in the GUI are scrambled (some
! `0' superscripts are not correctly rendered). One problem is that the 
! example xml files can not be read: `stream error'.
