[Bf-committers] packAll -> unpackAll

Yo Ton!

I just found another glitch with instinctive's network renderer (still
no interest in having it ported to official version? Just asking.. ;-) Documentation
is available here: 
http://blender.instinctive.de/downloads/release/docs/network-rendering.txt

When there were (unpacked) images or fonts in the project, the render clients
obviously couldn't access them, so you had to manually pack the file
before starting the network render...

I'm now calling packAll() before writing the network render .blend, and
unpackAll(PF_USE_ORIGINAL) directly after writing it.

Is this operation in any way potentially destructive, or will the project
be restored to the original state after using the two calls like this?

Thanks...
