[kepler-dev] error dragging a relation from a port

The problem seems to be fairly complex.
There are two changes, r64418 to diva BasicGraphHandle where we check 
for null
and r64430 where there are a bunch of changes to ptolemy outside of diva.

I agree that the change to BasicGraphHandle would seem to be a good idea.
However, if it is present and r64430 is present, then the blue grab 
handles don't
work well in Kepler and Ptolemy.  When I drag a connection around it 
does not
have a blue grab handle at the end.  A blue grab handle appears at the 
upper left.
I do get NPEs, but the behavior seems to be better.

Another issue is that I believe that Kepler uses diva.jar, so the change to
BasicGraphHandle was not present until I updated diva.jar.

I'm not sure about a fix to this, the bug is fairly mysterious.  I can take
a look, but it may take a day or two.

I got an NPE[2] from a click, have strange actor-drag behavior (actor drags wildly / shoots off in one direction), and sometimes dots are left over on canvas at the point where I clicked on the port. Also when I'm dragging out a relation I also notice in the upper left corner of canvas a blue 'port endpoint' square (generally only noticeable in the overview section in the lower left).
