About This Release
------------------
This release introduces "nmosh" another R6RS environment.
See doc/README.nmosh for details.
Changes
Introduce nmosh by OKUMURA Yuki.
nmosh is a port of Andre van Tonder's R6RS macro and runtime[1]
and R6RS
record from Larceny[2] with additional expander-cache (ACC) and
debugging
feature such as runtime stack trace.
Although nmosh is intended to a drop-in replacement of previous
psyntax
based mosh, it is still lacks some mosh specific enhancements
against R6RS
standard such as SRFI-38, shared namespace with expand/run phases
and more.
In this version, standard build process(./configure && make) and
MSVC
solution build both binary which "mosh" is for previous psyntax
based
runtime and "nmosh" is for nmosh runtime.

Configure script now supports out-of-tree building.
Since some GTEST based tests still not support out-of-tree
building and
testing, "make check" target will fail (in out-of-tree build only,
in-tree
builds should pass it.)
updated library
(irregex) : 0.8.1 (Alex Shinn's irregex library)
(mosh process) : add "exec"
new library
(shorten) : the shorten formed lambda like Gauche
(^a (+ 1 a)) == (lambda (a) (+ 1 a)) etc.
(rnrs load) : ERR5RS load (nmosh only)
BoehmGC: MIPS32 processor support.
MSVC build now depends on MPIR instead of GMP.
Download MPIR from http://www.mpir.org and extract to win/mpir.
mosh.sln
will load and build them together.
Note that building MPIR will require yasm installed. see
MPIR's own document (mpir/build.vc9/readme.txt) for detail.
Bug fixes.

Fixed Issue 140 reported by mrc.mgg:
R6RS write now uses normal write procedure instead of SRFI-38
printer introduced

Fixed Issue 136 reported by Will.Donnelly:
(mosh process) library now exports exec procedure among its
friends.
