Header file errors in 2.20/06 distribution (WARNING!)

I recently have been working with the various 2.20 distributions, and had
no luck getting the stuff in test/ to work right.  I finally yesterday
found the problem...
The header files in include/ are _not_ currently synced with the headers in
src/ in the distribution.  Anything built against the headers in include/
is likely to have many random failures.  For now it is easy to  link things
against the headers in src/, but could one of the official ROOTers make
sure that the include/ directory is brought up to date?

Thanks Fons, Rene, Masa and anyeveryone one else for your efforts on ROOT
2.20.  It works extremely well.  I am, incidentally, building it on egcs
1.1.1 on linux-ppc on a Power Macintosh.  Except for some minor problems I
have already reported to Damir, and that he has passed on, it works
perfectly now.

Merry Christmas (or Happy whatever holidays you choose to celebrate) and
happy New Year.
