There was a circular dependency between Littrack and CbmRichReco. The problem
only shows up when linking an executable.
The dependency could be resolved by moving some of the rich code into the
directory core/detectors/rich and splitting the littrack library into two parts.
The first library (Littrack) contains everything beside the littrack QA classes
and the second one (LittrackQA) contains only the QA code. Those files moved
from reco/detectors/rich had no dependencies to reco or sim.

Somehow (at least on some systems) the link order was such that the
first directory was $SIMPATH/lib. This was even the case when the order was
defined differently in the CMakeLists.txt. The problem isn't yet understood
completely.

This results in the problem that libVc.a was taken from $SIMPATH/lib
were it is installed by ROOT/FairSoft. As long as the version provided with
CbmRoot and the version provided by ROOT were the same the problem wasn't
seen. When updating our internal Vc version this results in a creash when
loading libryries due to a version mismatch between the library version and
the header file version.

This version is an exact copy of the last revision of the trunk branch
of the old SVN repository of CbmRoor at
https://subversion.gsi.de/cbmsoft/cbmroot/trunk
The old SVN repository will still be available for read access.
