[Laszlo-dev] [Platform-team] removing warnings in LFC

The stuff in lzunit (in trunk ) for logging lzunit results to the server
seems to be working. I think I could port that pretty easily to make lztest
use it as well.


I'd like to resolve the differences between the  lzunit  code in trunk and
the lzunit code in legals also. I vaguely remember maybe Tucker
reverted to an older version from before Ben modified lzunit , in order to
not depend on the lz components for presenting the results (?)
