to provide some minor speedup. But this made it impossible to
store unicode strings. So we can now store unicode strings
in a Lexicon *yippi*

Add getLogFile() method that provides hook for SpreadLog subclass.

- better debug messages

(quotation+colon+URL or quotation+comma+whitespace+URL) did not
work properly (thanks to Alastair Burt for reporting and submitting
the patch).

This change includes a minor change to semantics for
reinitialization().

There are three chief performance-related changes:

    - Do not check whether logging is enabled in the actual log call.
      Instead check enviroment variables when the module is imported
      and whenever an explicit initialize() call is made.

      This might seem like it limits the user's ability to turn
      logging on and off, but I don't believe it does.  Logging is
      controlled by environment variables.  Once the Python script is
      working, the environment variables won't change.

      This change makes the case of no logging fast, instead of slow.

    - Each log call goes through a method on the stupid_log_write()
      object instead of through __call__().  It's much faster to call
      a method than an instance.

    - Use "print >> file" rather than "file.write()".  It appears to
      be a bit faster.

Replaced _set_stupid_dest() with _set_log_dest().

Warning: this test is incomplete like the former
version because the real regression tests are not working
because the reference HTML files were generated
for the old ST - and not STXNG.
