+ Description:
+ 
+ Implemented new (but still experimental) heap2exec facility.  This is
+ tested under Mac OS X and should work under Linux (will test shortly).
+ It will probably also work on the Sparc (will test some time later).
+ 
+   - removed old "HACKED_STANDALONE" hack from runtime
+ 
+ To be able to test this, uncomment the request for "heap2asm" in
+ config/targets prior to installation.  (Notice that this is different
+ from "heap2exec" mentioned below.  Not a typo.)
+ 
+ To perform an actual test, run the command
+ 
+    $ bin/heap2exec heapfile execfile
+ 
+ (You can put heap2exec on your shell's path.)
+ 
+ For example, run
+ 
+   $ bin/heap2exec bin/.heap/ml-yacc.ppc-darwin mly
+ 
+ This will create a standalone executable called "mly" which you can
+ then invoke directly as a command.
