    KStarsDateTime now depends on the new KDateTime class, which covers
    dates -4713 to 11,000,000.  So there's a slight regression in the fact
    that we used to be able to go back to year -50,000.  This should
    eventually be fixed, but for now I'm using the regular KDateTime
    range.
    
    I need to remove ExtDate because it's based on Qt-3.x code, which is
    necessarily licensed under GPL v2 only.  KDE is migrating to GPL v3,
    which is not compatible with GPL v2.
    
    I also fixed the layout of the AltVsTime tool, which involved
    splitting the AVTPlotWidget into its own files, so that Qt designer
    could properly use it as a promoted widget.
    
    TODO: make sure all time-related functions work properly.  One thing
    to watchout for: KDateTime uses UT by default, so some parts of the
    code where local time was assumed needed to be changed.  I may have
    missed some of these.
    
    In the ObsListWizard, I need to enable the feature that allows the
    user to select objects observable from a given location, on a given
    date.
