preparing a new release

Running make check I noticed that the script frequently was interrupted by
permission problems:

make[2]: Entering directory `/c/tmp/gsl-1.6.91/histogram'
/bin/sh: ./test.exe: Permission denied
FAIL: test.exe

Re-running make check allowed me to complete the sequence without incident.
This looks like a problem with MSYS - but I wanted to report it here in case
others run into it.

==================
All 1 tests passed
==================
make[2]: Leaving directory `/c/tmp/gsl-1.6.91'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/c/tmp/gsl-1.6.91'


I am running MSYS/MINGW:

Thread model: win32
gcc version 3.2.3 (mingw special 20030504-1).

On a side note, I am curious why we don't include a single "gsl.h"
that includes all the gsl headers - with the expection of gsl_cblas.h
(because it's exceptionally large)?  Most modern computers can handle 
the large
number of files in a trivial amount of time?
