- changed the XML parsing throughout to go through a simplified API to later upgrade XML parsing in a central place. - updated support for ns_xml 1.4, and added work-arounds for previous versions. - added installer check for ns_xml compatibility at boot time.
Moved the bootstrap and installer stuff into their own mini-package, which let me clean up the loading of acs-tcl a bit and isolate all the bits of APM-knowledge required in the pre-acs-tcl bootstrapping process into a single apm file. In general, bootstrap.tcl is cleaner and easier to read.
