graphicalClient often crashes & invalid pointer in vartypes

[GoogleCodeExporter]

1)graphicalClient often crashes from unknown reason (segmentation fault).
Sometimes the old ball isn't cleared from the window (the real one + the
old one that isn't exist in the packet).

2)Vartypes generates an invalid xml file from using an pointer to local object.
It causes no problem in Linux (I don't know why), the problem happens in
Windows when I tried to build an example project (vartypes).
The detail described in vartypes project.

This is not an issue when running sslvison but I think it should be fixed.
This issue may occurs in the competition :P.

The Vartypes issues *should* all be fixed now under windows, but I don't have it
running on a windows machine, so I cannot verify. Please verify if you can.

We are aware of some remaining performance and stability issues in 
graphicalClient
and might consider a reimplementation of its drawing functions.

r169: graphicalClient has been rewritten from scratch, with pure OpenGL drawing 
operations. 

Additional testing on various systems is encouraged, particularly on systems 
with older graphics cards.
