Retrospective commit from 2009-09-26. Continued working on initialization. Started working on paragraph direction initialization. bidi.c (bidi_paragraph_init): Don't set bidi_it->ch_len. Abort if called not at beginning of a new paragraph. (bidi_get_next_char_visually): Prepare and use a sentinel iterator state when first_elt flag is set. dispextern.h (struct bidi_it): New struct member first_elt. bidi.c (bidi_init_it): Initialize bidi_it->first_elt. (bidi_copy_it): Don't copy the first_elt flag. xdisp.c (reseat_1): Initialize bidi_it.first_elt. Move bidi scan start code from here... (next_element_from_buffer): ...to here. Use bidi_it.first_elt flag.

we use a C preprocesor not only in the normal compilation of .c files
into object files, but also for creating

	src/Makefile
	lib-src/Makefile

(delimited by comment "start of cpp stuff").  some cpp implementations
insert whitespace in between tokens.

during makefile creation, the preprocessor symbol NOT_C_CODE is defined.
this should not be defined for normal .c file compilation.

there has been discussion on eliminating this use of cpp and relying
solely on autoconf processing.  rms says to leave it be.
