David Shaw finally removed all traces of Gopher and we are now officially

not supporting it. It hasn't been functioning for years anyway, so this is
just finally stating what already was true. And a cleanup at the same time.

Daniel (16 January 2006)
- David Shaw finally removed all traces of Gopher and we are now officially
  not supporting it. It hasn't been functioning for years anyway, so this is
  just finally stating what already was true. And a cleanup at the same time.

- Bryan Henderson turned the 'initialized' variable for curl_global_init()
  into a counter, and thus you can now do multiple curl_global_init() and you
  are then supposed to do the same amount of calls to curl_global_cleanup().

This release includes the following changes:

 o Gopher is now officially abandoned as a protocol (lib)curl tries to support.
 o curl_global_init() and curl_global_cleanup() are now using a refcount so
   that it is now legal to call them multiple times. See updated info for
   details.
