Changes since 2.0.5
1. src/slmath.c: nint was returning the wrong value for numbers 0.5<=x<1.
2. src/slarrfuns.c: sum(Double_Type[0,0],1) was generating an access
   error.
3. src/*.c: Removed some unused variables.
4. src/slcommon.c: '=' instead of '==' was being used in the
   utf8_enable function.
5. doc/tm/*.tm: corrected some documentation typos (Nelson Beebe,
   beebe at math, utah, edu).
7. src/sltime.c: times function was returning a structure containing
   incorrect values (cstawarz at head, cfa, harvard, edu).
8. src/sldisply.c: Writing a multi-byte character to the lower-right corner 
   of terminals with automatic margins was not working (Vladimir
   Nadvornik nadvornik at suse, cz).
9. src/slwclut.c: Allow \\^ in character set specifications to
   represent a literal '^'.  See the documentation for strtrans for
   more information.
10. src/slcommon.c: Some systems that have nl_langinfo do not have
    CODESET.  The configure script now checks for both.
11. autoconf/Makefile.in: Added ".PHONY" and "check" targets.
12. src/slstrops.c: "%c" in an sprintf style format descriptor made to
    work with wide-character arguments.  It is nolonger necessary to
    use "%lc".
13. src/slmisc.c: Semantics of "\x{...}" changed to be more useful
    when the interpreter is running in non-UTF8 mode.  Previously,
    "\x{...}" always expanded to a UTF-8 encoded string, regardless of
    the UTF-8 mode.  Now, in non-UTF8 mode, \x{...} will expand to a
    UTF-8 encoded string when "..." consists of 3 or more characters,
    and for less than 2 characters, it specifies a byte.  The behavior
    in UTF-8 mode has not changed: \x{...} always returns a UTF-8
    encoded string.  The upshot is that "\x{FF}" will produce the byte
    0xFF when not in UTF-8 mode, and the 2 byte UTF-8 encoding when
    run in UTF-8 mode. "\x{FFF}" will expand to the apropriate UTF-8
    encoding regardless of the mode.  Note that the behavior of the
    non-brace form such as \xAB has not changed--- the result is still
    a single byte 0xAB.
14. src/slmisc.c: \u{...} may be used in string literals to specify a
    unicode character, regardless of the UTF-8 mode (on or off).
    Previously, \x{...} had this behavior. (See #13).
15. src/test: Tests are run in both UTF-8 and non-UTF-8 modes.
16. src/slvideo.c: djgpp version of write_attributes was broken (Gisle
    Vanem giva at bgnett, no)
17. slsh/readline.c: Call SLang_handle_interrupt if a read was
    interrupted by a signal.  This will ensure that signal handlers
    will execute at the prompt.
18. src/sldisply.c: Added a check for buffer-overflow by tgetstr on TERMCAP
    based systems.
19. autoconf/: Updated config.sub and config.guess
20. slsh/readline.c: Added slsh_readline_noecho function.  Also, strip
    trailing newline from string returned by slsh_readline* when in
    --no-readline mode.
