   Note: Current stable releases are version 2.5.0 for kForth-32 and   
   version 0.5.0 for kForth-64. Versions 2.6.0 and 0.6.0 are development   
   versions and may be updated frequently.   
      
   A bug in the code for kforth64-fast, for calling external library   
   routines, was fixed at kForth-64 commit eefad24.   
      
   I've added the MPFR library test code to the battery of tests I perform   
   before pushing commits to the kForth repos. The updated list of   
   automated tests are:   
      
   System tests -- these are the numerous test progs found in   
   forth-src/system-test   
      
   FSL tests -- tests of complex number arithmetic and FSL modules, found   
   in forth-src/fsl : complex-test.4th and fsl-tester.4th   
      
   External library interface -- libmpfr-test.4th in forth-src/libs/gmp/   
      
   Other tests -- these are found in forth-src/   
      parallel-mm.4th   
      dd-test.4th   
      ftran-test.4th   
      lists-test.4th   
      lz77-test.4th   
      rawfloat-test.4th   
      strings-test.4th   
      hmac-md5-test.4th   
      
   Testing is a large part of the development, since I use my own programs!
