This release fixes several bugs involving some of the C API functions,
fixes a major bug and improves the speed of the suggestion code,
and fixes a number of other bugs.

Complete list of changes from 0.60.2:

    * Fixed bug where `ultra' or `fast' mode will not return any
      suggestions when soundslike lookup is not used.

      This speed things up by an order of magnitude in some cases.

    * Avoid using the slow ngram scan except when the `sug-mode' is
