Minimum transaction output is (conservatively) calculated from the minimum relay fee setting.  It did exist before, it was just set to '1 satoshi'. @p{par}

We made 0-satoshi outputs non-standard a couple of releases ago, but consensus is that was a mistake@p{--} 1-satoshi is not the right number, because the marginal cost of spending a 1-satoshi output is greater than its value. @p{par}

Again, eventually it might be economical to spend 1-satoshi outputs. When it is, the minimum relay fee will be on the order of a satoshi or two, and this code will do the right thing. @p{brk}
