+ Separate the test for significant gravitational lensing around the
sun from the actual lensing calculation. Now there are two methods -- checkBendLight() and bendlight(), the former doing the job of checking whether the skypoint is close enough to the sun to be lensed by its gravity. + [Major] Recompute coordinates of a SkyPoint only when about a minute has passed since the last recomputation. This means that precession, nutation, aberration, are calculated only when there are sufficiently large changes in time. This is expected to increase the speed of recomputing the skymap, although I have not tested the improvement. This is also a potentially dangerous change. I've not tested to check that precession is recomputed when the step is sufficiently large. CCMAIL: kstars-devel@kde.org
