What is not been moved to ooMisc?! I have said I encountered bugs while 
creating __solverPaths__ in runProbSolver, so now it's created in ooMisc 
(as None). Of course, then I redefine it as Python dict (in runProbSolver).

Neither connecting IPOPT nor ALGENCAN 2.x version  (as well as some 
other work done during my GSoC 2008) are not mentioned in my 
GSoC-assigned schedule (still I had spent some more time because some OO 
users were very interested in these issues). So it's not my job to get 
ALGENCAN workaround.

If my GSoC mentors will insist on getting OO svn work for windows w/o 
wait for next OO release, for to economy my time I'll just remove 
ALGENCAN_oo.py, it will take much less efforts.
