Replace __ with . as the module qualifier symbol.
Replace references to io.state with just io.
Replace DCGs with state variables.
Replace (C->T;E) syntax for if-then-elses with (if C then T else E) syntax.
Replace if-then-elses with switches when possible and where this does not
affect what is being tested.
Replace separate pred and mode declarations with predmode declarations.
Put predicate and function declarations just before the definition
of the predicate or function.
Delete unneeded module qualifications on predicate and function declarations
and definitions.
Update .exp files (and if needed, .inp files) for the line number changes
that result from the above.
For tests that have more than one .exp file and where one of those files
is affected by the above, add a section to the source file header that says
which .exp file is for what grade, with XXXs for the (as yet) unknown parts.

Make these tests use four-space indentation, and ensure that
each module is imported on its own line. (I intend to use the latter
to figure out which subdirectories' tests can be executed in parallel.)
These changes usually move code to different lines. For the debugger tests,
specify the new line numbers in .inp files and expect them in .exp files.

Move the univ, maybe, pair and unit types from std_util into their own
modules. std_util still contains the general purpose higher-order programming
constructs.
library/std_util.m:
Move univ, maybe, pair and unit (plus any other related types
and procedures) into their own modules.
library/maybe.m:
New module. This contains the maybe and maybe_error types and
the associated procedures.
library/pair.m:
New module. This contains the pair type and associated procedures.
library/unit.m:
New module. This contains the types unit/0 and unit/1.
library/univ.m:
New module. This contains the univ type and associated procedures.
library/library.m:
Add the new modules.
library/private_builtin.m:
Update the declaration of the type_ctor_info struct for univ.

Update the declaration for the type_ctor_info struct for univ.
runtime/mercury_mcpp.h:

Update the definition of MR_Univ.
runtime/mercury_init.h:
Fix a comment: ML_type_name is now exported from type_desc.m.

handled specially by the il code generator.)

Implement a new mdb command, "condition", which associates a condition with
an existing breakpoint. The condition is a match between a variable live at
the breakpoint, or a part thereof, and a term provided as part of the condition
command. If execution arrives at the breakpoint but the match doesn't have the
required outcome, execution will continue without stopping.
NEWS:
Mention the new capability.
doc/user_guide.texi:
Document the new capability.
runtime/mercury_trace_term.[ch]:
This new module has facilities for converting strings to a structured
representation of terms. The debugger uses this representation for the
term being matched.
runtime/Mmakefile:
Add the new module to the list of modules in the runtime library.
browser/cterm.m:
This new module tests whether a value in the program being debugged
matches a term represented by the data structure defined in
mercury_trace_term.
browser/mdb.m:
Include the new module in the browser library.
trace/mercury_trace_spy.[ch]:
Change the code that checks for breakpoints to check breakpoints'
conditions.
Fix an old bug: set the number of the most recent breakpoint
even when reusing an existing slot.
trace/mercury_trace_vars.c:
Change the code that checks for breakpoints to also evaluate the
condition, if any.
Provide the facilities required to implement conditions. Besides
exporting some previously private functions, this involved breaking up
two existing functions into two pieces each, because condition checking
wanted to reuse only parts of them.
Modify the implementation of the functions manipulating breakpoints
to handle the new parts of spy point structures.
Modify the way we delete spy point structures to make doubly sure
that we don't free memory twice; it is now MR_delete_spy_point that
sets the spy_exists field to FALSE, after checking it.
Give more meaningful names to some variables.
trace/mercury_trace_internal.[ch]:
Implement the condition command.
Conform to the changes in mercury_trace_vars.c
When the condition of a breakpoint cannot be evaluated, print an error
message.
Extend the command parser to support double quotes, since this is now
needed to allow strings in terms in the condition command.
Flush any error messages resulting from an mdb command immediately
after the command. This was useful in debugging the change.
tests/debugger/cond.{m,inp,exp*}:
Add this new test case to test the new capability.
tests/debugger/Mmakefile:
Include the new test case in the list of test cases.
tests/debugger/completion.exp:
tests/debugger/mdb_command_test.inp:
Update to reflect the new command.
tests/debugger/cmd_quote.exp:
Update the error message.
