DOC: the RPATH and RUNPATH tags and the $ORIGIN token
...
This is very arkane, hard to find knowledge about some intricacies
of the dynamic library resolution. Very relevant for Lumiera,
since we use a resolution scheme relative to the location
of the executable. Documenting this stuff was a long-standing issue

DOC: locating of dependencies and resources at application start-up
...
a long standing TODO to document the actual start-up sequence, which
is implemented this way since a long time now. There was an unwritten
section in the "Linking and Application Structure", which seems the
apropriate place for this kind of intricate techincal details.
Last week, Benny Lyons was here on visit in munich and he was pondering
the idea of an experimental secondary build system, as a way to learn
more about the source structure of Lumiera. This reminded me to fill
some missing parts of the documentation. Possibly this is also the
right moment to land the GTK-3 transition?

This means to discontinue any research into emitting an optimal
diff verb sequence for now and just to document the possible path
I see to reach at such a optimal solution later, when it turns out
to be really necessary performance wise.
Personal note: I arrived at this conclusion while whatching the
New Year fireworks 2014/2015 at the banks of the Isar river in
the centre of the city.

Build: adjust versions and naming to comply with Debian/Jessie
...
Note: this drops some backwards compatibility. We're targeting now
roughly the range between Ubuntu-Precise (LTS) and Debian/testing,
with Debian/stable as the reference system.
The naming scheme for Boost-Libraries was adjusted with Boost-1.42
for Unix-Platforms. Now the '-mt' suffix isn't included any more, but
the libraries available through the usual packaging mechanisms can be
assumed to be thread safe.
