+- In job backup init (backup.c) define definitive Job level and
+ since time, *then* apply Job Pool override selection if any.
+11Aug05

+ ate the next line.
+- Eliminate read_dvd_volume_label(). New code (not yet written)
+ *must* open dvd appropriately before calling

+- C++ify the SD code a bit more.
+13Jun05
