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.

paramters in its constructor to allow it to be used to create rotations around a point.
This provides the same interface and functionality as osgUtil::TransformCallback but
has the advantage and AnimationPathCallback is fully supported by the .osg and .ive file formats.
leaving it up to the Viewer to specify the mode (which by default is MultiThreaded).
Added a check for the presence of osgParticle systems so that threading is
disabled in this case.
o Object files now go in subdirectories named $(OS)$(ARCH).Opt and
$(OS)$(ARCH).Debug for OS's that support both architectures.
eg. Linux32.Opt and Linux32.Debug
o Libraries links are now placed in lib/$(OS)$(ARCH)
eg. lib/Linux32/
o Binaries are now placed in bin/$(OS)$(ARCH)
eg. bin/Linux32
o 'make install' and 'make instlinks' now place files/links in
/usr/local/{include,lib,share/OpenSceneGraph} by default on
most systems (Solaris still goes in /opt/OpenSceneGraph).
Rather than having the somwehat confusing INST_SYS_PREFIX and
INST_SHARE_PREFX, you can override these with just
INST_LOCATION
For example,
make INST_LOCATION=/usr
will place files at /usr/include, /usr/lib,
/usr/share/OpenSceneGraph.
2) Changed Makedepend system to make individual dependency files, which
should save time rebuilding dependencies by limiting the regeneration
of dependency file for only modified source files.
