Changes in version 10.3.16

Benjamin Moody has added an interface between the WFDB library and libcurl as an alternative to the existing libwww interface, and has updated `configure' and `conf/*.def' to search for and use libcurl if it is available. The primary advantages of libcurl over libwww are that libcurl is smaller and faster, it supports access to password-protected files, and it is actively maintained. Both libraries are freely available on all popular platforms.

Isaac Henry has updated configure to support building a native MS-Windows version of the WFDB library using either Cygwin gcc or MinGW gcc.

A number of minor changes, mostly involving conditional use of `malloc.h', `stdlib.h', and `string.h', were made to eliminate warnings from gcc 4.x.
