Just realized that this will also affect the "startup.pl" script
that's used to set the Apache environment; there are three Perl
modules that used to be initialized by /openils/conf/bootstrap.conf
that will now need to be initialized by /openils/conf/opensrf_core.xml
instead.

On that note: to capture significant config-breaking changes like
this, and other news of interest to the EG community, I think an
"Evergreen Weekly News" kind of Web column that summarizes development
and discussion would be a nice addition to the roster of information
dissemination methods used by Evergreen. Many people don't have the
time or the interest (amazingly enough!) to read every -dev post, but
would probably follow along with a weekly summary.
