updates to basin_remote committed

Hello fellow BASINites,

My work on the basin_remote source has been committed to CVS. The way
that the code is built has been completely reworked, but it still uses
the familiar
    autoreconf
    ./configure
    make
    make install <- This is optional

The README file as been updated as well, and you should probably look at
that before you try to build. There are a few caveats, but I think you
will find that the build system is much nicer to use, especially once
you have it set up properly.

The major differences are that now any basin_remote code that needed
basin_kernel source now links against the basin_kernel as a library. The
easiest way to get this working is to build the basin_kernel and then do
a 'make install'. Now that you know the directory where basin_kernel is
installed, you can run 'configure' in basin_remote like so:
    ./configure --with-basin=/home/user/basin_install_dir/lib/basin

Also, since linux has issues finding libraries that are not installed at
the system library, you will want to set either the "LD_RUN_PATH"
environment variable to the same directory above before you type make or
set the "LD_LIBRARY_PATH" env var to this directory when you try to run
the basin_remote code.

All of these issues are discussed in the README. If there are any
questions, or if something is not clear, please let me know.

Thank you,
~Doug
