Re: Linux build

To: mmalmi@cc.hut.fi Martti Malmi
heapchk() is just a MSVCRT debugging thing that's not being used.  It
can be a no-op on Linux.  OpenSSL automatically uses /dev/urandom to
seed on Linux, so RandAddSeedPerfmon can also be a no-op.

Don't let it connect to the network before we've tested it thoroughly
off-net.  If you have two computers, unplug the internet and use
"bitcoin -connect=<ip>" to connect to each other, one windows and one
linux.  -connect will allow you to connect to non-routable addresses
like 192.168.x.x.  We don't want to reflect badly on the reliability of
the network if it throws off some malformed crud we hadn't thought to
check for yet, or discovers something else anti-social to do on the network.

I have time that I can do some testing when you've got something
buildable to test.  I can include it in the stress test I'm currently
running on the changes so far.
