- Request-Response operations must now declare their throwable fault names.

Fixed a bug which occurred when re-throwing the same fault inside a fault handler.

Changelog:

- Creation of libJOLIE: a shared library, devoted to the parsing and code analysis routines, on which JOLIE projects are now based upon (including the interpreter itself).
- Major reimplementation of the parsing and semantics validation engines.
- Implementation of correlation sets, used to support sessions in a concurrent or sequential way, each with its own memory state or a shared one.
- Implementation of fault and compensation handling mechanisms, internal and through the network.
- Many runtime performance and stability improvements.
- Various code optimizer improvements.

Changelog:
- Improved in() support for integers.
- Improved optimization of parallel and sequential processes.
- Support for in() and sleep() as possible inputs for a non deterministic choice.
- Introduction of command line options.
- Introduction of a deployment file.
- Various performance and stability improvements.
- sleep() takes now an expression as its argument.
- locations, operations, links and variable blocks are now optional, instead of forcing the writing of an empty block.

- Initial support for SOAP over HTTP (still a work in progress).
- Support for more network input socket ports.
- Initial support for a new location format, URI based.
