Update to 3.7.10.1
Note temporary hack in CMakeLists.txt to fix build with -gsl
link_directories("/usr/lib" "${LOCALBASE}/lib")
This is from a missing -L somewhere in the swig generation code that
needs to be fixed.

## Major Development Areas

This contains bug fixes primarily for GRC and DTV.

### GRC

Catch more exceptions thrown by ConfigParser when reading corrupted grc.conf
files.

Fix the docstring update error for empty categories.

Fix grcc to call refactored GRC code.

Convert initially opened files to absolute paths to prevent attempting to read
from tmp.

Move startup checks back in to gnuradio-companion script from grc/checks.py.

### DTV

Fix a segfault that occurs from out-of-bounds access in
dvbt_bit_inner_interleaver forecast by forecasting an enumerated list of all
input streams.

Fix VL-SNR framing.

### Digital

Enable update rate in block_recovery_mm blocks to keep tags close to the the
proper clock-recovered sample time. Tag offsets will still be off between calls
to work, but each work call updates the tag rate.

### Analog

Fix the derivative calculation in fmdet block.

### Builds

Fix linking GSL to gr-fec.

Use gnu99 C standard rather than gnu11 standard to maintain support for GCC
4.6.3.

### Other

Minor spelling and documentation fixes.

Fix uhd_siggen_gui when using lo_locked.

GRC Bus Ports (Nicholas McCarthy)

Bus ports in the GNU Radio Companion (GRC) allow ganging block input
or output ports into a single port for display and connections. This
simplifies flowgraph entry when dealing with blocks that work with an
arbitrary number of streams.
