/*
 * Unit creation and manipulation routines for the udunits(3) library.
 *
 * The following data-structures exist in this module:
 *	BasicUnit	Like an ISO "base unit" but also for dimensionless
 *			units (e.g., "radian").
 *	ProductUnit	A unit that, when it is created, contains all the
 *			BasicUnit-s that exist at the time, each raised
 *			to an integral power (that can be zero).
 *	GalileanUnit	A unit whose value is related to another unit by a 
 *			Galilean transformation (y = ax + b).  Examples include
 *			"yard" and "degrees Fahrenheit".
 *	LogUnit		A unit that is related to another unit by a logarithmic
 *			transformation (y = a*log(x)).  The "Bel" is an example.
 *	TimestampUnit	A wrong-headed unit that shouldn't exist but does for
 *			backward compatibility.  It was intended to provide 
 *			similar functionality as the GalileanUnit, but for time
 *			units (e.g., "seconds since the epoch").  Unfortunately,
 *			people try to use it for more than it is capable (e.g.,
 *			days since some time on an imaginary world with only 360
 *			days per year).
 *	ut_unit		A data-structure that encapsulates ProductUnit, 
 *			GalileanUnit, LogUnit, and TimestampUnit.
 *
 * This module is thread-compatible but not thread-safe: multi-thread access to
 * this module must be externally synchronized.
