Compiling BOINC uppercase Sample on Linux

In order to compile uppercase.C with gcc version 4.1.1, I had to change some function signatures to match their definitions, since C99 defines bool. Hopefully blogger doesn't mangle the patches given here. Just in case, there is a patch to correct the function signatures and another patch to fix OpenGL linking.

Also, I was trying to build uppercase, with graphics enabled. There are some files that uppercase needs to link with that are not in any of the BOINC libraries, so the must be built and linked with directly. I also changed the library handling to not be hard-wired to a given directory:
