[Swift-devel] wiring swift and falkon together

[Tiberiu Stef-Praun]

So to summarize:
-  apparently there are small changes needed by the Swift's Falcon provider
- will anyone get these in the SVN, and make Swift " Falcon-ready" ?
Note that I did not say "Falcon enabled", because the latter means
that a Falkon service is installed somewhere and ready to run
