 * Fri Aug 06 2010 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.18 (RPL/2)  * Thu Dec 09 2010 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.20 (RPL/2)
   - Lapack is upgraded to 3.3.0;
   - libmtmalloc is now default Solaris allocator;
   - ncurses is upgraded;
   - regression introduced bt 4.0.19 is fixed in signal management.
   Interruption1() can be called from itself and raises bus error (on sparc) or
   segmentation fault;
   - sqlite is upgraded to 3.7.4;
   - OpenSSL is upgraded to 1.0.0c;
   - syntax error is correctly checked ( (2+,0) does not crash RPL/2 anymore);
   - characters are tested in recherche_type() to avoid names like '12+';
   - gnuplot is upgraded to 4.4.2 due to major bugs.
   * Thu Sep 23 2010 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.19 (RPL/2)
   - due to a very strange bug I've only seen on Solaris, ptmalloc3 is removed.
   Solaris libresolv randomly uses ptmalloc3 and system allocator and makes heap
   corruption. As internal memory management have been improved, a best fit
   allocator like ptmalloc3 is not required anymore;
   - gnuplot is upgraded to 4.4.1;
   - deadlock is fixed in signal handlers: same mutex was used in standard
   subroutines (without protected sections by sigprocmask() or pthread_sigmask())
   and signal handlers. A new signal handler specific mutex is added;
   - minor bug is fixed in evaluation() subroutine. In { X 0 PI }, PI is a function
   that has to be evaluated by ->NUM;
   - rplfile build process is modify to be sure that rplfile is not modified
   after rpl build stage (to be sure that rplfile checksum is not modified after
   rpl compilation);
   - AWK is replaced by rplawk. rplawk is original awk written by Brian Kernighan,
   modified to remove yacc code and renamed;
   - some workarounds have been written to not use buggy klibc SystemV IPCS.
   ABORT now works on eComStation;
   - sqlite is upgraded to 3.7.2;
   - bug is fixed in software interrupts. When both process have different PID,
   parent process was not interrupted if it is not group master process. To fix
   this bug, SIGINJECT signal is not sent by child process but by control thread
   in parent process;
   - minor bug is fixed in data injection (POKE) that does not work as expected
   when child process is protected by NRPROC.
   * Thu Aug 26 2010 BERTRAND Joël <rpl@systella.fr> rpl-4.0.18 (RPL/2)
   - --enable-sysv-sems is added to configure script to use SystemV semaphores
   functions instead of POSIX functions. This function is disabled or forced on
   systems that does not provide correct POSIX or SysV semaphores subsystem;
   - a dirty but not quick patch is written to workaround broken siginfo
   structures. This patch has been successfully tested. It uses a segment of
   shared memory (Posix or SysV) and some semaphores (Posix or SysV) by process
   (Unix PID);
   - some OpenBSD's hacks are added;
   - broken siginfo->si_pid field is now checked by configure script;
   - SWI now sends SIGCONT to interrupted process to start interrupt without delay;
   - random generator is cloned by SPAWN;
   - in transliteration subroutine : '\r' is added after all '\n' in OS/2 port;
   - getaddrinfo is hardcoded when host system does not provide getaddrinfo
   or freeaddrinfo;
   - RPL/2 can now use SystemV semaphores when POSIX semaphores are unavailable;
   - major bug is fixed in CHR intrinsic when obtained character is not printable;
   - Lapack is upgraded to 3.2.2;
 - OS/2 (eComStation 2.0 with EMX 0.9d) support is added;  - OS/2 (eComStation 2.0 with EMX 0.9d) support is added;
 - TOKENIZE is now able to convert escape sequences;  - TOKENIZE is now able to convert escape sequences;
 - ATPOKE and CLRATPOKE new intrinsics are added;  - ATPOKE and CLRATPOKE new intrinsics are added;
