[Reini Urban <rurban at x-ray dot at>]

I've recompiled clisp plus the subpackages clisp-clx, clisp-gtk2 and 
clisp-gdi, released hereby as 2.48-3.

No jit, no multithreading.

Changes in 2.48-3:
* recompile with gcc4-4.3.4-3 and new libsigsegv-2.8-1 for cygwin 1.7

Older Changes:
2.48-2
* chmod +x /usr/lib/clisp-2.48/full*/svm.dll
* fixed wrong libdb4.6 dependency to libdb4.5
* fixed clisp-gdi.src.patch

2.48-1
* depends on libsigsegv1 (libsigsegv-2.6+-1) with Eric Blake's fixes
  for the SEH chain corruption.
* re-enabled gtk2
* added dbus to -gtk2 package
* added wildcard module to full
* clisp-gdi is a modern package (case-sensitive and case-inverted),
  and now hosted at http://code.google.com/p/clisp-gdi/
  See http://code.google.com/p/clisp-gdi/
* minor modprep and build patches added
* removed fix_iconv build hack
* added libsigsegv1 dependency
* revised required dependencies
* disabled stripping to enable (disassemble)

Release focus:
bugfixes and enhancements

Important notes
---------------

* Multiple threads of execution are now experimentally supported
  (not ready for prime time yet).
  Thanks to  Vladimir Tzankov <vtzankov@gmail.com>.
  See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/mt.html> for details.

* Module libsvm has been upgraded to the upstream version 2.89.
  See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/libsvm.html> for details.

* Module Berkeley-DB now supports Berkeley DB 4.7.
  (older versions 4.* are, of course, still supported).
  See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/berkeley-db.html> for details.

* Module readline now supports readline 6.0.
  (older versions 5.* are, of course, still supported).
  See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/readline-mod.html> for details.

* Passing :EXECUTABLE 0 to EXT:SAVEINITMEM results in an executable
  image which delegates processing of all the usual CLISP command line
  options to the :INIT-FUNCTION.
  See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/image.html> for details.

* Driver clisp accepts "-b" to print the installation directory.
  See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/clisp.html#opt-printlibdir> for
details.

* Add file clisp.m4 so that the packages which use CLISP can check
  whether it is properly installed and has the required version.

* POSIX:COPY-FILE now accepts :METHOD :HARDLINK-OR-COPY.
  See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/syscalls.html#copy-file> for details.

* New function POSIX:WAIT calls waitpid or wait4.
  See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/syscalls.html#wait> for details.

* New function EXT:TRIM-IF removes leading and trailing matches.
  See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/seq-func-ext.html#trim-if> for
details.

* New user command "LocalSymbols" (abbreviated ":ls").
  See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/repl.html#debugger-main-deb-step>
  for details.

* Commands "add" and "create" replace "add-module-set",
"add-module-sets" and
  "create-module-set" in clisp-link.
  See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/modules.html#clisp-link> for details.

* Bug fixes:
  + Better support of :START and :END arguments in NEW-CLX. [ 2159172 ]
  + Fix LOAD-LOGICAL-PATHNAME-TRANSLATIONS when *LOAD-PATHS* contains
    wild pathnames (introduced in 2.47). [ 2198109 ]
  + Module NEW-CLX now has the XLIB:QUEUE-EVENT function,
    implemented by Philippe Brochard <hocwp@free.fr>.
  + Extend the domain of LOG to larger BIGNUMs and RATIOs. [ 1007358 ]
  + Avoid a segfault on (EXPT <HUGE> <HUGE>). [ 2807311 ]
  + Fix interaction of finalizers and weak objects. [ 1472478 ]

* ANSI compliance:
  + Implement the ANSI (IGNORE #'FUNCTION) declaration.
