What's it all about, Alfie?

Yesterday, Martin has looking at the patch I submitted for the Recovery Interval in Milliseconds feature, and he was talking with the OpenPGM guru of the project - Steven, about the correct default setting on the ZMQ_RECOVERY_IVL_MSEC value. Should it be 0 (as I had it), or should it be -1?

Honestly, I don't care, and when Martin came back with the answer of "make it -1", I went into the code... again... and got the master branch and applied the changes I had, and then updated the options to allow for an int32_t as opposed to an uint32_t. Then I changed the default from 0 to -1 in the options class constructor. Done.

I then built it, verified it. Then repackaged the changes into a new tarball for building the RPMs, and built them. Installed them, and then build the jzmq Java client libraries and deployed them on my boxes.

It's not hard, but there's a lot of little things to do. Someday I may actually automate this.
