I'm doing a bunch of fixes (they never seem to end do they?) prompted by a
weird bug report by Maciej about odd behavior zooming between two map
displays. This was tricky to reproduce on my Mac and much more difficult to
fix. I think I got it, but it involved changing most of the many global
variables floating around to variables within local namespaces, and indexing
more variables by active display monitor.

I also found and dispatched a few other hidden bugs and bugs waiting to
happen.

I've fixed this one too I hope. Maciej and other have reported it before,
but it has been intermittent on my Mac--making a fix difficult.

This cleanup should make the whole application more robust.

I want to commit all this tomorrow or on Wednesday (depending on my schedule
and access to the cvs tomorrow).
