Pretty sure we're not quite ready for a release, but there
have been enough changes that it's worth another snapshot.
Here's the most recent NEWS addition:
Commands implemented via shell scripts are now more consistent about
failure status. For example, 'gunzip --help >/dev/full' now
consistently exits with status 1 (error), instead of with status 2
(warning) on some platforms. [bug present since the beginning]
