ROOT support in MIDAS is being reworked:

a) ROOT support moved from midas.h to rmidas.h
b) default mlogger is built without ROOT support, use rmlogger if you need ROOT output
c) Makefile inconsistency between use of ROOTSYS and use of root-config has been identified, but not yet 
fixed. the plan is to use root-config to detect and use the ROOT package.
d) cross compilation will not support ROOT (same as now. "make linux32", "make linux64", "make 
linuxarm" disable most optional packages. To build full featured midas with ROOT & etc please compile 
natively on the ARM machine).
e) histogram servers in MIDAS and ROOTANA will be switched to use the new ROOT Web server classes 
(based on "civet", a fork of the mongoose web server).
