Monday is a holiday here in the US, so I'll have a bit of time I could 
spend on a release.

Just let me be sure about this: It's the code on the RELEASE_1_8_0 
branch, not the BRANCH_1_8 branch?  I'm not clear on what the purpose of 
the 2 branches is...

Martin, is the autoconf/automake system up to date, or will it need a 
bit of work?

The contents of the change_log look kind of sparse for 1.8, is there 
more that should be added?  If so, there's a useful tool called 
cvs2cl.pl which can be used to create a changelog from cvs commit 
comments, obviously you don't want all of them, but it gives you a 
starting point by collecting/merging everything into one file.
