/*
Description:
  Carefully match curve ends.
Parameters:
  curve0 - [in]
  end0 - [in] 0=match start of curve0, 1 = match end of curve0
  curve1 - [in]
  end1 - [in] 0=match start of curve1, 1 = match end of curve1
  gap_tolerance - [in]
    The match is not performed if the initial gap is <= gap_tolerance.
    If gap_tolerance < 0, then ON_ComparePoint() is used to
    compare the points.
Returns:
  True if ends of curves are matched to requested gap_tolerance.
