(we are now liberated from the tyranny of SVN IDs),
multithreaded run transitions seem to work reliably and are now the default in mhttpd.

In odbedit and mtransition, the default is the old sequential transitions. "-m" and "-a" flags activate 
the new multithread run transitions. mhttpd now uses the equivalent of "mtransition -a" 
(mutithreaded asynchronous).

This is one of the new features implemented by Stefan while at TRIUMF.

K.O.

(We hope to write up all the recent changes soon).
