source-only release candidate

Several useful changes and fixes have accumulated since the last release
(Nov 2003).  To get these to a wider audience, I intend to do a
source-only release soon.  The first release candidate is at:

http://cvs.haskell.org/Hugs/downloads/Sep2003/hugs98-Sep2003-rc1.tar.gz

Instructions (after unpacking):

        cd hugs98-Sep2003/src/unix
        ./configure
        cd ..
        make LibStatus
        grep ERROR LibStatus

This builds in-place.  'make install' installs in /usr/local; to install
at home, add --prefix=$HOME to the configure line.  Other configure
options you might try are:

  --enable-hopengl        include HOpenGL, a Haskell binding for OpenGL/GLUT
  --with-pthreads         build Hugs using pthreads C library

The old options --enable-readline and --enable-ffi are no longer needed.
