[Rivet] Rivet with Rapgap

[Andy Buckley]

Hi Hardeep,

I believe that Holger added Rapgap support into AGILe some time ago but 
I've never used it. Perhaps he can help.

Re. the incompatible beams warning, it would be useful to know what 
Rapgap is actually outputting. Can you generate 1 (and only one!) event 
and write its output HepMC ASCII to file, then attach it to an email? We 
can then read it and tell you what Rapgap is producing (or read it 
yourself if you know how ;) )

Cheers,
Andy
