Patch 439 — Flexpoller now handling FLEXlm license usage without display value
FLEXlm usually outputs license usages with user name, host name, and a
display value. In some cases the display value is missing, and this patch
will allow flexpoller to accept the user name and the host name, while
keeping the display value blank.
Patch 427 — Fix parsing of lmstat output with missing feature version in entries
Flexpoller had bug in parsing when encountering lmstat output where
checked out entry lines where missing feature version info.
Patch 426 — Improved FlexPoller parsing + stability
FLEXlm status output differs between versions and possibly by
other criteria. Flexpoller has now been updated to handle
certain variations in outut that it previously did not handle.
Patch 387 — Fix handling of a new lmstat format in flexpoller
The parsing of lines like

  User Host /dev/pts/12 6373 (v1.0) (srv1/2700 9286), Start Mon 5/8 16:28

where the '6373' is a new previosuly unknown field, are now correctly
parsed by the flexpoller binary.
