Summary:

      This is a bugfix release.  Its main purpose is to solve
      a showstopper problem introduced into the x86 c-calls
      implementation which is used by NLFFI.

Details:

Interactive System:
-------------------

   - Command-line arguments are handled slightly differently:
       * system automatically quits after processing -S, -H, -s<n> or
         -h<n> if one of these appears as the last command-line argument
       * new option -q which forces a quit

Basis:
------

   - Race condition in signal handling code fixed.

MLRISC:
-------

   - fixed problem with c-calls implementation on x86, preventing the
     compilation of calls of any C function returning any form of int
   - bug in dijkstra.sml fixed
   - bug in udgraph.sml fixed
   - some support for IBM assempler syntax (PPC) added
