There is also a way for a project server to request either of those logs.
This was apparently used to collect statistics on clients, then make SETI
server request them and make an academic paper on the results (-_-)
Since:
- this kind of stats-gathering may be considered spying (at least the
timestamps of when the computer is running),
- I don't think any project will request it anymore,
- it involves almost 200 lines of client code, and
- it's one of the last pieces of code still using MIOFILE for XML-writing
I propose removing it. Actually, I already removed it, but will hold on
committing the change.
I recall Didactylos was interested in some stats-gathering. Note that I
*didn't* remove the code that collects stats while WUs run, only the code
that writes those stats to a file when the WU ends.

I have removed this. Please review the change (r1126).
