- subroutines for handling forking/pthreads/etc.


01/20/2006
- replaced partimagehack with ntfsclone

06/20/2004
- create fifo /var/log/partimagehack-debug.log and empty it
  to keep ramdisk from filling up

04/13/2004
- >= should be <= g_loglevel

11/15/2003
- changed a few []s to char*s
  
10/12
- rewrote partimagehack handling (multiple fifos, chunks, etc.)

10/11
- partimagehack now has debug level of N (set in my-stuff.h)

10/08
- call to partimagehack when restoring will now log errors to /var/log/....log

10/06
- cleaned up logging a bit

09/30
- line 735 - missing char* cmd in sprintf()

09/28
- added run_external_binary_with_percentage_indicator()
- rewritten eval_call_to_make_ISO()

09/18
- call mkstemp instead of mktemp

09/13
- major NTFS hackage

09/12
- paranoid_system("rm -f /tmp/ *PARTIMAGE*") before calling partimagehack

09/11
- forward-ported unbroken feed_*_partimage() subroutines
  from early August 2003

09/08
- detect & use partimagehack if it exists

09/05
- finally finished partimagehack hack :)

07/04
- added subroutines to wrap around partimagehack

04/27
- don't echo (...res=%d...) at end of log_it()
  unnecessarily
- replace newtFinished() and newtInit() with
  newtSuspend() and newtResume()

04/24
- added some assert()'s and log_OS_error()'s

04/09
- cleaned up run_program_and_log_output()

04/07
- cleaned up code a bit
- let run_program_and_log_output() accept -1 (only log if _no error_)

01/02/2003
- in eval_call_to_make_ISO(), append output to MONDO_LOGFILE
  instead of a temporary stderr text file

12/10
- patch by Heiko Schlittermann to handle % chars in issue.net

11/18
- if mkisofs in eval_call_to_make_ISO() returns an error then return it,
  whether ISO was created or not

10/30
- if mkisofs in eval_call_to_make_ISO() returns an error then find out if
  the output (ISO) file has been created; if it has then return 0 anyway

08/01 - 09/30
- run_program_and_log_output() now takes boolean operator to specify
  whether it will log its activities in the event of _success_
- system() now includes 2>/dev/null
- enlarged some tmp[]'s
- added run_program_and_log_to_screen() and run_program_and_log_output()

07/24
- created
