Yes, we are converting all the libraries over to protocol interfaces.

With Swarm-1.2 folks will either have to eliminate use of statically
typed things like EZGraph *, or include the relevant interface file.

Previously, analysis.h and space.h were made up of all the includes
of the respective libraries.  Now they are protocol definitions, just like
defobj.h, collections.h, activity.h, and gui.h.

This means that you should change the types of the EZGraph's, etc.
in your application header files to be like:
 
  id <EZGraph> foobar;

instead of:

  EZGraph *foobar;

For temporary portability, you can just use a generic object, e.g.

  id foobar;
