siftstar: 2012/03/08, MWB, added VERBOSE flag
photiso: 2012/03/08 - MWB, fixed a problem with the first cleanup cut. It was much too agressive, letting far too few sources survive to the end

rdtfile: 2012/01/24 Written by Erin R. George, Southwest Research Institute
ois: 2012/01/24, MWB, Changed FWHM filtering on stamps. It was a 2-sigma cut and this has been relaxed to a 3-sigma cut. Also, one case that generated a warning and tried to run the difference anyway was changed to return with a failure.

ois: 2011/12/28, MWB, Changed usage of MAXPHOTSIG. Now, this level is used just during the stamp selection process. No change is made during the actual differencing process.
basphote: 2011/12/23, MWB, added CALCFWHMSIZE keyword, this is an inportant change, read the documentation on this keyword. If you ever used BOXMRAD with a value much smaller than RADIUS you really need to read the new documentation.
