Re: lush2 beta release

I just looked at gblearn2 myself. It's probably easiest to start
out by replacing all dhc-make by dhc-make-sf, which means you
compile in the lush1- namespace.

Another issue I saw is the use of idx-m2resize (defined in 
libidx/idx-macros). I believe this used to be a type-generic
macro for resizing a matrix. There are similar but
type-specific macros defined in the same file. idx-m2resize
now is also type-specific and is for resizing mptr-matrices
(it was the logical name for it). Now you need to look what
type-specific macro is required in place of idx-m2resize
(e.g., idx-f2resize for float matrices).
