Hi folks,

This has several features, and a bug fix or two in it.  Beat up on it
and let me know what you think.

SPECIAL NOTE:
The default port number is now the "official" heartbeat port number
(694) by default.  If you overrode it in the spec files of some machines
but not others, you could have a port mismatch that would cause you
grief.

Here's the change log:

  + Added the nice_failback feature. If the cluster is running when
        the primary starts it acts as a secondary. (Luis Claudio)
  + Made the RPM more SuSE-compatible
  + Tidied up logging so it can be to files, to syslog or both (Horms)
  + Tidied up build process (Horms)
  + Updated ldirectord to produce and install a man page and be
    compatible with the fwmark options to The Linux Virtual Server
(Horms)
  + Added log rotation for ldirectord and heartbeat using logrotate
    if it is installed
  + Added Audible Alarm resource by Kirk Lawson <lklawson@heapy.com>
    and myself (Horms)
  + Added init script for ldirectord so it can be run independently
    of heartbeat (Horms)
  + Added sample config file for ldirectord (Horms)
  + An empty /etc/ha.d/conf/ is now part of the rpm distribution
    as this is where ldirectord's configuration belongs (Horms)
  + Minor startup script tweaks.  Hopefully, we should be able to make
core
    files should we crash in the future.  Thanks to Holger Kiehl for
diagnosing
    the problem.
  + Changed the default port number to our official IANA port number
(694)
  + Fixed the serial locking code so that it unlocks when it shuts down.
