Umpf. There's been so much happening, I'm not sure if I can remember it
all

- Improvements in the AVR backend, especially a number of missed
optimization bugs fixed

- The beginning of a Multiple Address Spaces feature

- The beginning of 24-bit types, mainly used for Multiple Address Spaces
(i.e. large code space, or large data space)

- Some work done on 64-bit double types

And other fixed bugs.
