Hi Bochs developers!

The bugfix release Bochs 2.2.1 is out now. The sources and binary
packages for Linux and Windows are available for download. I have also updated 
the website and the online documentation.

Here is the list of changes since vorsion 2.2:

- Fixed several compilation warnings and errors for different platforms
- Fixed FPU tag word restore in FXRSTOR instruction

- Bochs disassembler bugfixes
- About 5% emulation speed improvement
- Handle writing of zero to APIC timer initial count register

- Reduced overhead of BX_SHOW_IPS option to minimum. Now every simulation 
  could run with --enable-show-ips without significant performance 
  penalty.

- Changed some timing defaults to more useful values
