/**
 
low-level aka "lib"
-------------------
 
this codebase was grown from modules shared between several projects,
i.e. my personal library; hence the name "lib". it has been expanded to
fit the needs of 0ad - in particular, resource loading.
 
owing to the dual-use situation, the 0ad coding conventions are not met;
also, major changes are ill-advised because they may break other projects.
 
 
design goals
------------
 
- fast and low-overhead, including startup time
- portable: must run on Win32, Mac OS X and Linux
- reusable across projects, i.e. no dependency on a
  central 'manager' that ties modules together.
 
 
scope
-----
 
- POSIX definitions
- resource management
- debugging tools (including memory tracker)
- low-level helper functions, e.g. ADTs, endian conversion and timing
- platform-dependent system/feature detection

 * - the epsilon magic number varies with the magnitude of the inputs.

 * - floating-point numbers don't magically lose precision. addition,
 *   subtraction and multiplication results are precise up to the mantissa's
 *   least-significant bit. only division, sqrt, sin/cos and other
 *   transcendental operations introduce error.
