Summary: mojobootpage loading rarely works

Initial Comment:
There's some bug in the way we load bootpages, perhaps
due to interaction between the DoQ thread and some
asyncore thread or other.

The symptoms are that most attempts to load a bootpage
fail even though the bootpage is up.

One possible solution would be to do away with
bootpages!  People can copy MT phonebookdicts around
instead of bootpage URLs.  Binary distros can come with
a bunch of MT phonebokdicts preloaded.

It would probably be better for the imminent stable
release to just fix the bootpageloader though...

I'm assigning this a priority of only 6 because I think
Mnet works anyway, as long as you are patient and keep
trying for 10 minutes.   Okay, that's pretty bad. 
Raising the priority to 9.

Note: I'm not assigning this to myself!  Come and get
it you hackers!
