Oh, it's related to the config merged manually. So I've added a check
before the merge. I've fixed those and reuploaded the file, also
fixing the loadClass() problem in PagerSimple.

Also... I've added another pager adapter: Sliding (my favorite from
Pear::Pager). :-D

Well, they are still "my vendor" helpers... so that's why I haven't
renamed the vendor namespace to 'Solar'... But to make things easier
for you, now they use 'Solar_' instead.

I think the solution exists: use vendor namespaces, or adapt to yours.
I prefer to never use the Solar namespace. Well, just to keep Solar
"pure". ;-)
