Survex 1.1.1 test version uploaded

[Lev S Bishop]

I tried installing survex 1.1.1 finally. It doesn't work so well for me. 
I get the "couldn't add image to the list" error when I start Aven. I 
dismiss that dialog and when I open a .3d file I get a dialog "Bug in 
program detected! Please report this to the authors." After which Aven 
wedges solid. It seems to be an accelerated graphics related issue because 
when I turn down the level of hardware acceleration in the advanced 
display properties dialog then things work (though I do get the "one half 
of the window doesn't repaint until I click on it" issue that others have 
reported). Here is what Aven's help->about says for the highest level of 
hardware acceleration that allows Aven to work:

Windows NT 5.1 (build 2600, Service Pack 2)
wxWidgets 2.5.2
Display Depth: 32 bpp (colour)
OpenGL 1.1.0
Microsoft Corporation
GDI Generic
GL_WIN_swap_hint GL_EXT_bgra GL_EXT_paletted_texture

Here is what help->about says for the next highest level of hardware 
acceleration (where Aven crashes):

I'm running on a Dell Inspiron 4100 laptop, and in case the above doesn't 
make it clear, this has an ATI Mobility Radeon and I'm running on Win XP 
Home SP2. There are quite a few "compatibility" settings and "performance" 
settings for the graphics card. If I had any clue what I was doing I might 
try changing them to see if it helped. I'll be glad to run further tests 
if anybody asks me to.
