Branching for 1.8 on 2006-02-05

[Marius Vollmer]

Hi,

I need to kick myself to get going with the 1.8 release, and want to
do it by just branching for 1.8 soon and thus get out of the way of
the devlopment happening on the trunk.

I want to branch next weekend, on Sunday, 5. Feb.  Before that, the
following things should be settled in trunk, I'd say:

  Inlining `scm_is_pair ()'
  `try-module-autoload' and `current-reader'
  API naming bugs (the "frame" name issue)
  Backtrace and enhanced catch

I'll take care that this happens.

(What we have in the 1.8 branch is not immediately the 1.8.0 release,
but should be very close.)
