[haiku-appserver] Re: update code.

        Okay, I may be sleeping tomorrow at may desk, but what the hell... :-)

        I managed to solve the problem with those update requests being "lost". 
It should work correctly now, at least from that point of view. :-)

        Stephan, can you confirm some improvement, as I have tried to test but 
you forgot about Painter.h :-)) and I could not compile at that moment.


That's it for today, I'm going to sleep.
Night-night!
Adi.
