forcing users to use osgDB::readRef*File() methods. The later is preferable as it closes a potential threading bug when using paging databases in conjunction
with the osgDB::Registry Object Cache. This threading bug occurs when one thread gets an object from the Cache via an osgDB::read*File() call where only
a pointer to the object is passed back, so taking a reference to the object is delayed till it gets reassigned to a ref_ptr<>, but at the same time another
thread calls a flush of the Object Cache deleting this object as it's referenceCount is now zero. Using osgDB::readREf*File() makes sure the a ref_ptr<> is
passed back and the referenceCount never goes to zero.
To ensure the OSG builds when OSG_PROVIDE_READFILE is to OFF the many cases of osgDB::read*File() usage had to be replaced with a ref_ptr<> osgDB::readRef*File()
usage. The avoid this change causing lots of other client code to be rewritten to handle the use of ref_ptr<> in place of C pointer I introduced a serious of
templte methods in various class to adapt ref_ptr<> to the underly C pointer to be passed to old OSG API's, example of this is found in include/osg/Group:
bool addChild(Node* child); // old method which can only be used with a Node*
tempalte<class T> bool addChild(const osg::ref_ptr<T>& child) { return addChild(child.get()); } // adapter template method
These changes together cover 149 modified files, so it's a large submission. This extent of changes are warrent to make use of the Object Cache
and multi-threaded loaded more robust.

I have left the Texture::generateTextureObject functions intact as I'm not sure if/how it's used outside the core OSG. If you feel that compatibility isn't important in that area feel free to drop it.
While testing the build with OSG_USE_REF_PTR_IMPLICIT_OUTPUT_CONVERSION=OFF I found a compile error in GlyphGeometry.cpp that was entirely unrelated to the changes I've made. The fix is included in the patch.
There is one thing left to fix and that is Texture2D::SubloadCallback:
class OSG_EXPORT SubloadCallback : public Referenced
{
public:
....
virtual TextureObject* generateTextureObject(const Texture2D& texture, State& state) const
{
return osg::Texture::generateTextureObject(&texture, state.getContextID(), GL_TEXTURE_2D);
}
...
}"

- Implementation of integer textures as in EXT_texture_integer
- setBorderColor(Vec4) changed to setBorderColor(Vec4d) to pass double values
as border color. (Probably we have to provide an overloading function to
still support Vec4f ?)
- new method Texture::getInternalFormatType() added. Gives information if the
internal format normalized, float, signed integer or unsigned integer. Can
help people to write better code ;-)

Futher changes to this submission by Robert Osfield, changed the dirty mipmap
flag into a buffer_value<> vector to ensure safe handling of multiple contexts.
the text implementation to provide better speed, especially by using the
alignement to screen option.
Deprecated the Text::setFontSize(,) method, which is now being replaced
by setFontResolution(,)
Fixed typos in Texture*.cpp.
Removed old deprecated methods from osg headers.
Removed the rescalling of images in osg::Image during texture apply, moving
the rescale so it is locally calculated. This solves an outstanding threading
problem which occured by multiple draw threads all tried to rescale the same
image at one time.
Made osg::Image ptr in osg::Texture2D non mutable as it is no longer modified
during apply.
