[Gm2] GM2 0.5 released

[Gaius Mulley]

Hi,

gm2-0.5 has been released and some of the key features about this
release are described in the gm2/NEWS file, reproduced below. For a
simple build it is advisable to use gm2-harness-0.7.tar.gz. GM2
probably needs to be built using a 3.x series of gcc. This release of
gm2 uses the back end of gcc-3.3.6.

Once again a huge thanks goes to all who have test driven gm2 and
submitted bug reports and/or patches,

enjoy,
Gaius
