Bug#202174: Bug#195404: RC bug removal for 2003-12-01



Hi...

I have fixes to animals that do three things:

 - 1. adjusts the source to use new c++ standards (including
       std:: namespace),
 - 2. factors non-db-relevent items into other files (should 
       simplify future porting), and
 - 3. causes animals to link against db-4.1.

I continue to assert my maintainership, however I'm still completing
outside projects. If you want to NMU, the code is at

  http://sessionsnet.com/files/?folder_id=5262
