 Dear colleagues,

I have packaged new bug-fix releases of libatomic_ops and gc:
* libatomic_ops-7.2f.tar.gz, libatomic_ops-7.4.2.tar.gz - available for downloading at  https://github.com/ivmai/libatomic_ops/wiki/Download
* gc-7.2f.tar.gz, gc-7.4.2.tar.gz - sent to Hans Boehm for review and posting at  http://www.hboehm.info/gc/gc_source/ (Hans will announce)

Lists of recent changes are available at:
*  https://github.com/ivmai/bdwgc/blob/master/ChangeLog
*  https://github.com/ivmai/libatomic_ops/blob/master/ChangeLog (almost none changes since 7.2e, 7.4.0)

PS. Release 7.5 is still under development and available only as a snapshot of git repository.

Regards,
Ivan
