forcing users to use osgDB::readRef*File() methods. The later is preferable as it closes a potential threading bug when using paging databases in conjunction
with the osgDB::Registry Object Cache. This threading bug occurs when one thread gets an object from the Cache via an osgDB::read*File() call where only
a pointer to the object is passed back, so taking a reference to the object is delayed till it gets reassigned to a ref_ptr<>, but at the same time another
thread calls a flush of the Object Cache deleting this object as it's referenceCount is now zero. Using osgDB::readREf*File() makes sure the a ref_ptr<> is
passed back and the referenceCount never goes to zero.
To ensure the OSG builds when OSG_PROVIDE_READFILE is to OFF the many cases of osgDB::read*File() usage had to be replaced with a ref_ptr<> osgDB::readRef*File()
usage. The avoid this change causing lots of other client code to be rewritten to handle the use of ref_ptr<> in place of C pointer I introduced a serious of
templte methods in various class to adapt ref_ptr<> to the underly C pointer to be passed to old OSG API's, example of this is found in include/osg/Group:
bool addChild(Node* child); // old method which can only be used with a Node*
tempalte<class T> bool addChild(const osg::ref_ptr<T>& child) { return addChild(child.get()); } // adapter template method
These changes together cover 149 modified files, so it's a large submission. This extent of changes are warrent to make use of the Object Cache
and multi-threaded loaded more robust.

Currently if you do this you get strange looking results as the colors are calculated for values in the centre of each color step, so if your steps are large, the colors are interpolated sigificantly (see screen grab of red, green and blue colors for illustration).
I've attached a fix which just uses the original color values whenever _numColors equals the number of actual defined colors in the ColorRange. I doubt anyone would want interpolated colors in these circumstances."

From Robert Osfield, changed the example so that the vertical and horizon scalar bars are rotated to the XZ plane so you can see them with the default viewer's camera orientation.
Tweaked the positioning of title text of vertic scalar bar to avoid overlap of text.
implementation to use these values to position and set the size of the
scalar bar. Also made the characterSize value a float rather than
the previous int.
part of prep for supporting both Matrixf (float) and Matrixd (double).
Added osg::Matrixf::glLoadMatrix() and osg::Matrixf::glMultiMatrix() methods
and changed corresponding usage of glLoad/MultMatrixf() calls across to use these
methods. Again prep for support Matrixd.
Fixes for VisualStudio 6.0 compile.
