[crossfire] Quest system - Error reporting needs work

[Mark Wedel]

  A somewhat related question:

  Since the quest system (and some other core functionality) is using 
python/other plugins, should the configure check be changed so that configure 
errors out if the python libraries are not available (eg, will be unable to 
compile the plugin)

  Most of the plugins add functionality that is not 'core' (for lack of better 
term), but I would put quests into a core functionality area (especially if 
these replace the mechanisms currently in the game that do not require plugins).

  I have no issues making this a requirement - my main concern would be bug 
reports/questions along the line of 'my server compiled just fine, but quests 
are not working'.
