Further amend the system to enable/disable sudo during fork/exec.
2010-12-09:
* (mhatle) Add doc/program_flow to attempt to explain startup/running
* (mhatle) guts/* minor cleanup
* (mhatle) Reorganize into a new constructor for libpseudo ONLY
pseudo main() now manually calls the util init
new / revised init for client, wrappers and utils
* (mhatle) Add central "reinit" function
* (mhatle) Add manul execv* functions
* (mhatle) rename pseudo_populate_wrappers to pseudo_check_wrappers
