including ARSDoc-1.11 (with small patch submitted to list) now
run, and produce the right results.

(JCM) new functions and doc on new functions and new examples for some
of these new functions.
(JCM) ! altered return value of perl_ARStatusStruct so that it
returns a hash of the various StatusStruct members so that
reversing the operation is simpler. scripts that, for example,
retrieve active link definitions and print them out that previous
expected the {message} key to point to a string will need to
be updated.
(JCM) added valueType to the assign structure to assist in
reversing the operation (converting perl to C API assign
structure).
(JCM) added displayTag as an optional parameter to ars_LoadQualifier()
so that you can build queries against customized views (that
are stored on the server).
(JCM) altered ARError() so that return codes of OK or WARNING don't
signal an error. For example, GetListEntries would return
nothing if you matched more than the max allowed, now it returns
the max allowable number of records and places a warning message
into the error hash.
