Mostly fixed the van de Beek ML synchronization scheme. Instead of using the CP timing signal, it correlates against the known preamble just to send along the timing trigger. This works nicely and keeps the frequency more constant in the receiver since it updates the estimate every received symbol. Read the comments inside to see why it's 'mostly fixed' -- this was mostly proving a point for myself today.
Adjusting structure a bit to redistribute responsibilities. This does not change the behavior or performance at all. The sync. block only calculates the frequency and timing signals and now outputs the fine frequency adjustment signal from output 0 and the timing signal for the start of the packet from output 1.
Adds gru.daemonize() and example application. Simplifies running GNU Radio applications as background daemon processes instead of foreground applications.

Set PREFIX back to /usr/gnuradio, because systems that do not use /opt
and follow traditional UNIX partitioning will then put the build in /
(which does not have adequate space and violates the point of / being
separate). The prefix /usr/gnuradio is also not known to be in use by
any packaging system, and it is important that test builds not
interfere with files controlled by packaging systems. It may be that
OS-specific overrides are needed to choose a reasonable prefix on
systems where /usr/gnuradio is not appropriate.
Add usrp as a dependency for gr-radar-mono. Now only expected
failures occur on NetBSD/i386 4.0ish (gr-audio-{alsa,osx,windows} and

Added reference scaling to fftsink2. Default behavior is unchanged.

Updated usrp_fft.py to display dBFS by setting ref_scale to 32768.0

Merged build_config branch into trunk:
1) Modified top-level run_tests.sh script:
a) to execute code for setting or changing the library search path in
Darwin (DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH) or Windows (PATH) on those host OSs
only, not on other host OSs.
b) Added local (to the component making check) library paths to those
same search paths, since libtool doesn't do it (unlike in Linux).
2) In all AM Makefiles -except those dealing with USRP firmware-,
changes INCLUDES to AM_CPPFLAGS since the former is deprecated.
3) Changed AM_CPPFLAGS to FW_INCLUDES for commands .c.rel in USRP
firmware.
