Sapidlib final-08020-r8 "lpuni-final r8"

Introduction

After a long haitus in the wilderness and much to most people's suprise, the
LPUniversity Mudlib is back for a final outing. This release is a bugfix of
ALPHA-0610-R7. There are still many problems with the mudlib but it was
decided that it should be released for future developers to use and fix.
Current mudlib development is now focused upon the Sapidlib trunk. Occasional
fixes will be released for this version but only on an ad-hoc basis.
