The N3 is still part of minc-toolkit package, but now you also have N4 
as part of Conver3D binary and a tool from ANTS. What I have really 
changed is the standard_pipeline.pl script used in the test suite.

The reason for this change is that N3 does not produce consistent 
results on different platforms (i.e Debian 6 vs Ubuntu 11.04), so 
analysis behaviour is actually not the same if you use N3 compiled with 
different compilers.
