Entry number 288234

We lost about an hour to DAQ troubles, rooted in the incompatibility of the 
boards with old software, etc.  All our rocs load the same crl, and croak if 
they don't have symbols loaded for the functions mentioned in the crl... hence, 
all our rocs know about bmw, for instance. 

So when I modified the dithering scripts to run today, I had to uncomment some 
functions which some rocs didn't know about... and couldn't because they were 
based on old and incompatible libraries.  And now all the rocs are in danger of 
choking on these function calls.

ROC25 was the most susceptible.  It hadn't been rebooted since the dithering 
software modification, until this evening.  Then it choked, and when trying to 
fix it we ended up hanging it hard.  After the reset, we fixed the problem by 
re-commenting out the caFFB function calls. 

I'll make a second bmw "stub" file, to define dummy functions and hopefully 
avoid this problem in the future.
