This leads to the bitcoin core being shut down while the UI is accessing it, and generally results in a segmentation fault or crash. In case it is desirable to make it possible to shutdown the GUI from its RPC server, we'll need to implement a signal for it. For the mean time, this is a safe stopgap.
getmemorypool [data]
If [data] is not specified, returns data needed to construct a block to work on:
"version" : block version
"previousblockhash" : hash of current highest block
"transactions" : contents of non-coinbase transactions that should be included in the next block
"coinbasevalue" : maximum allowable input to coinbase transaction, including the generation award and transaction fees
"time" : timestamp appropriate for next block
"bits" : compressed target of next block
If [data] is specified, tries to solve the block and returns true if it was successful.
Instead of encoding the public key inside the signature string, use
key recovery to do verification. This allows 88-character base64-encoded
signature strings instead of 188-character ones.
This replaces the openssl-based base64 encoder and decoder with a more
efficient internal one. Tested against the rfc4648 test vectors.
Decoder is based on JoelKatz' version.
Makefiles now build bitcoind only.
qmake/make in top-level directory is used to build Bitcoin QT
Deleted almost all #ifdef GUI from the code (left one possibly controversial one)
Deleted xpm/ files.
In order to be a proper HTTP implementation clients that aren't allowed
to connect to the RPC server (using -rpcallowip), should receive a
proper HTTP response. So instead of closing the connection on them send
a '403 Forbidden' status.

* A new class CKeyStore manages private keys, and script.cpp depends on access to CKeyStore.
* A new class CWallet extends CKeyStore, and contains all former wallet-specific globals; CWallet depends on script.cpp, not the other way around.
* Wallet-specific functions in CTransaction/CTxIn/CTxOut (GetDebit, GetCredit, GetChange, IsMine, IsFromMe), are moved to CWallet, taking their former 'this' argument as an explicit parameter
* CWalletTx objects know which CWallet they belong to, for convenience, so they have their own direct (and caching) GetDebit/... functions.
* Some code was moved from CWalletDB to CWallet, such as handling of reserve keys.
* Main.cpp keeps a set of all 'registered' wallets, which should be informed about updates to the block chain, and does not have any notion about any 'main' wallet. Function in main.cpp that require a wallet (such as GenerateCoins), take an explicit CWallet* argument.
* The actual CWallet instance used by the application is defined in init.cpp as "CWallet* pwalletMain". rpc.cpp and ui.cpp use this variable.
* Functions in main.cpp and db.cpp that are not used by other modules are marked static.
* The code for handling the 'submitorder' message is removed, as it not really compatible with the idea that a node is independent from the wallet(s) connected to it, and obsolete anyway.
