/** An easy-to-use evolutionary algorithm; you can use any chromosome,
    and any selection transformation, merging and evaluation
    algorithms; you can even change in runtime parameters of those
    sub-algorithms

Change (MS, July 3. 2001):
  Replaced the eoEvalFunc by an eoPopEvalFunc: this immediately
  allows many useful constructs, such as co-evolution (e.g. game players),
  parisian approach (the solution to the problem is the whole population)
  or simple distribution of evaluations on a cluster.
  In case an eoEvalFunc is passed, it is embedded on an eoPopLoopEval
  This makes things a little uglier (required an additional "dummy" member

Note: it looks ugly only because we wanted to authorize many different
  constructors. Please only look at the operator() and there shall be light
