---------------------
- The code used to format exceptions in the utils method
was called the wrong way and failed when it was called
to format an exception (Tracker issue 125, thanks to
David Riggs).
- A juxtaposition in arguments to manage_edit led to
segfaults in some applications (spotted by Tres
Seaver).
- Logging is extracted into its own module (SimpleLog),
thereby making it easier to extend later.
