Description

This patch includes the following updates and improvements

* Add false-denial identification and reporting

Data 75 (License logfile events) can be used to report on "false denials" after this update.
Note that the data type must be regenerated after the patch has been installed before
the new information is available.

* Improve the DEFAULT mapping behavior used in the user-to-groups.map file

Previously a user would be considered mapped, if he was present in any map in the 
whole map file. With the new update, a user can trigger a DEFAULT hit for each group 
type.

* Small speed improvement in processing for most archive types. 

Depending on archive type a speed increase of 10-15 % may be expected. The licpoll2 
archive type was the prime goal for the improvement.

Revision 2 adds support for 6.3.0.3.
