GC_stackbottom, GC_gc_no and GC_dont_gc are now deprecated. These changes
use new options in the API where possible.
Update scripts to copy the boehm_gc and libatomic_ops directories correctly.
Pass Boehm GC the correct flags for thread support
Update documentation regarding the version of Boehm GC.
runtime/mercury_wrapper.c:
Don't use the deprecated GC_dont_gc variable.
library/benchmarking.m:
Use GC_get_stackbottom() to get the bottom of stack and GC_get_gc_no()
to get the number of collections so far.
util/mkinit.c:
Do not explicitly set GC_stackbottom anymore, except on AIX where it
cannot be found automatically.

earlier and remove some old ones.

bindist/bindist.README:
Update documentation regarding the version of Boehm GC.
configure.ac:
Something in Boehm GC's build system has changed and we must now pass
-DGC_THREADS whenever building threadsafe versions of BOehm GC. This is now
done using the BOEHM_MISC_CFLAGS_FOR_THREADS autoconf variable, which has
been renamed to BOEHM_CFLAGS_FOR_THREADS now that it is more generally used.
Boehm GC no longer (or perhaps never did) require developers to specify the
type of threading to use, eg -DGC_LINUX_THREADS rather than -DGC_THREADS.
With the exception of win32-pthreads. We now pass -DGC_THREADS whereever
possible.
Mmake.common.in:
Rename BOEHM_MISC_CFLAGS_FOR_THREADS.
Fix the years in copyright messages so that they record move from The
University of Melbourne to The Mercury Team correctly.
I recall the time correctly because it's when i submitted my thesis :-)

Say that the GPL terms apply to the compiler and tools, not to the

There's nothing strange about it.

As per the second point above.
primary motivation for this is resolve various problems with Mac OS 10.6, such
as the parallel grades not building (bug #121). The upgrade should also pave
the way for supporting a 64-bit version of Mercury on Mac OS 10.6.
(Unfortunately, the reg grades still do not work - bug #120.)
Reduce the number of merge conflicts we get when upgrading the collector by
(1) removing some local changes to support DLLs that were merged into the
official version of the collector sometime ago, and (2) removing our local copy
of the Makefile, and creating it from the file Makefile.direct. (We were
making local changes to the former, and the GC developers are now only updating
the latter - both files were out of sync with each other.)
boehm_gc/Makefile:
Create Makefile from Makefile.direct and have the submake target
depend upon it. (Despite what the GC documentation says about
Makefile.direct, if you use the direct method it has to be called
Makefile because the object files are set to depend upon it by
that name, i.e. using make's -f option won't work.)

NOTE: the slight modification referred to above is the following, backported from
the current head of the collector. It is required for Mac OS 10.6.

The most significant of these was that the ftp sites listed
in the README file in the binary distribution were out-of-date.

Mention some new README.* files.
Update the version number and copyright dates for the Boehm GC.

Update the version number and copyright dates for the Boehm GC.
Update the ftp sites. Update the copyright date.
Update the file names for the Mercury standard library and
runtime library.

Update the copyright date printed by `mprof --help'.

Mention info_to_gdb.
Delete mention of an old cygwin bug since fixed.

Update the instructions for running configure --
it now autodetects this configuration, so there's no
need to specify it explicitly.
Estimated hours taken: 0.5
Reduce the number of places where the version number is hard-coded.
bindist/Mmake:
Add `VERSION=0.6'.
When creating a binary distribution, use `sed' to replace
the strings `<VERSION>' and `<FULLARCH>' in the bindist.* files
with the corresponding values.
bindist/bindist.INSTALL:

README, RELEASE_NOTES, bindist/bindist.README:
Remove mention of `ftp.cs.mu.oz.au' as one of our ftp sites;
`turiel.cs.mu.oz.au' is now the primary site.
Estimated hours taken: 0.5
bindist/*:
Rename most of the files to start with `bindist.'.
This avoids confusion between files used to build the
binary distribution, and files that get incorporated
into the binary distribution (and which are then used
to install it), and so makes it obvious that one should
not attempt to run `configure' or `make' in this
directory.
