samples/Mmakefile:
Add the beer program to list of targets.
samples/*.m:
Convert (C->T;E) to (if C then T else E).
Delete trailing whitespace.
Use predmode syntax instead of separate pred and mode
declarations.
samples/interpreter.m:
Fix up one predicate that had some clauses that used
DCGs and others that used state variables.
Don't use the name 'IO' for something that isn't the I/O state.
samples/diff/*.m:
samples/c_interface/c_calls_mercury/mercury_main.m:
samples/c_interface/short_example.m:
Delete trailing whitespace.
Branches: main
Remove deprecated modules and (most) deprecated procedures from the standard
library. (The remaining deprecated procedures probably need to stick around
for at least another release in order to give people time to adapt their code.)
library/dir.m:
library/list.m:
library/stack.m:
library/string.m:
library/type_desc.m:
Delete obsolete procedures.

library/sveqvclass.m:
library/svmap.m:
library/svmulti_map.m:
library/svqueue.m:
library/svset.m:
library/svvarset.m:
Delete these modules, they are no longer required since the
original predicates now have their arguments in the state-variable
friendly order.
library/library.m:
Delete the above modules.

User-guided type specialization.
compiler/prog_data.m:
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
compiler/modules.m:
compiler/module_qual.m:
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
Handle `:- pragma type_spec'.
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
Factor out some common code to parse predicate names with arguments.
compiler/hlds_module.m:
Added a field to the module_sub_info to hold information about
user-requested type specializations, filled in by make_hlds.m
and not used by anything after higher_order.m.
compiler/make_hlds.m:
For each `:- pragma type_spec' declaration, introduce a new predicate
which just calls the predicate to be specialized with the
specified argument types. This forces higher_order.m to produce
the specialized versions.
compiler/higher_order.m:
Process the user-requested type specializations first to ensure
that they get the correct names.
Allow partial matches against user-specified versions, e.g.
map__lookup(map(int, list(int)), int, list(int)) matches
map__lookup(map(int, V), int, V).
Perform specialization where a typeclass constraint matches a
known instance, but the construction of the typeclass_info is
done in the calling module.
Give slightly more informative progress messages.
compiler/dead_proc_elim.m:
Remove specializations for dead procedures.
compiler/prog_io_util.m:
Change the definition of the `maybe1' and `maybe_functor' types
to avoid the need for copying to convert between `maybe1'
and `maybe1(generic)'.
Changed the interface of `make_pred_name_with_context' to allow
creation of predicate names for type specializations which describe
the type substitution.
compiler/make_hlds.m:
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
Make the specification of pragma declarations in error
messages consistent. (There are probably some more to
be fixed elsewhere for termination and tabling).
compiler/intermod.m:
Write type specialization pragmas for predicates declared
in `.opt' files.
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
Export `mercury_output_item' for use by intermod.m.
compiler/options.m:
Add an option `--user-guided-type-specialization' enabled
with `-O2' or higher.
compiler/handle_options.m:
`--type-specialization' implies `--user-guided-type-specialization'.
compiler/hlds_goal.m:
Add predicates to construct constants. These are duplicated
in several other places, I'll fix that as a separate change.
compiler/type_util.m:
Added functions `int_type/0', `string_type/0', `float_type/0'
and `char_type/0' which return the builtin types.
These are duplicated in several other places,
I'll fix that as a separate change.
library/private_builtin.m:
Added `instance_constraint_from_typeclass_info/3' to extract
the typeclass_infos for a constraint on an instance declaration.
This is useful for specializing class method calls.
Added `thread_safe' to various `:- pragma c_code's.
Added `:- pragma inline' declarations for `builtin_compare_*', which
are important for user-guided type specialization. (`builtin_unify_*'
are simple enough to go in the `.opt' files automatically).
compiler/polymorphism.m:
`instance_constraint_from_typeclass_info/3' does not need type_infos.
Add `instance_constraint_from_typeclass_info/3' to the
list of `typeclass_info_manipulator's which higher_order.m
can interpret.

ultra_sub:
a new sample program - the new improved version of sub.
It doesn't quite do full unification, but it is much more
sophisticated than sub (though not necessarily more useful ;-)
