Added in(i) function to rcalc for more flexible channel evaluation. Replaced all calls to vfork() with regular fork() calls. + +Fixed bug in glarendx for dgr calculation with sources behind view. + +Added -p option to histo to print percentages/percentiles r.t. counts. + +Added a source occluder cache to accelerate shadow testing.

Since this is purely a time vs. memory trade-off, +I decided not to make it a new command-line option. (We already +have plenty.)
