Fails to meet waypoint, which it can meet and exceed, when given as final goal #197

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. WP0: 7 Roaches in under 5 minutes
2. Final Goal: A number of different units and upgrades
3.

Program is never able to meet the waypoint after multiple tries of 10+ hours 
each. It always seems to go for very early pools 6-9, and can't solve the 
problem. However, it can come up with several under 5 minute 7RR builds in less 
than a minute, if it's run as the final goal.

v0026 on Windows 7 64

For a concrete example:

WP0: 7 roaches, 5:00 minutes
Final: 20 roaches, +1, +1, Glial Reconstitution

Stuck at 6 Roaches at 5 minutes, fails to meet waypoint

i believe this is because it takes the final goal into account first thing. 
it's not hitting one goal, then taking that state and hitting another. it's 
trying to get 20 roaches, 1/1, and speed, while also having 7 roaches at 5 
minutes. it prepares for the final goal during that first 5 minutes, meaning it 
can't hit 7 roaches in the same amount of time.
