Made tool more robust. + +Added -t option to rcontrib (and rfluxmtx) to report progress after the +given number of seconds. + +Added "test" target to makeall to run unit tests. + +Modified bsdf2ttree to allow different parameters per input SIR file. + +Fixed issues with very large matrix files (> 2GB) in dctimestep, rmtxop, +and rcollate. + +Added -rf and -rb options to rmtxop to load front or back reflectance +matrix data from XML file rather than transmission. (Lars Grobe suggested.) + +Improved behavior for coincident surfaces with different materials. +Rather than returning one surface or the other based on floating-point +vagaries, opaque materials are now preferred over transparent ones. +If the materials are both transparent or both opaque, then whichever +surface appeared later in the scene description will be selected. +This came of a request for consistent behavior with legal CAD output +from Peter Apian-Bennewitz.
