My merge with the latest Google code is now complete and committed.

The svn autotools are currently horribly broken for me. (Using make dist and
then trying to build from the tar.gz distribution) I had to make the
following patches in order for it to build, but when it did, it worked:

* make whines about missing .Plo files and missing .Po files in .libs/* I
had to copy them from my earlier version of 3.01, in which they were all
created by make. I suspect this is a problem with the gettext system. I
built my makefiles with no options to runautoconf and configure on linux
Lucid.

* libtool does not exist in the default distribution. I copied that from my
earlier version of 3.01.

This version will not compile with any known version of leptonica! Only 1.67
and above are compatible at the source level, but the distribution of 1.67
builds a .so.0 which tesseract fails to find, even after removing the
apt-get version of 1.64. leptonica 1.68 will be out soon to fix this
problem, but in the mean time, I am uploading a .deb package of liblept 1.67
that outputs .so.1. To fix this temporarily there is a couple of debian
packages in a debian directory that can be used to build on 64 bit linux
systems. I may fix this better tomorrow by removing the dependency on the
function that needs 1.67. This probably also breaks the Windows build.
