I've started experiments on marshalling global variables (that extern  
const NSString * stuff all over the Cocoa headers), but that's not  
done yet, and I'm leaving for vacation tomorrow (going towards Quebec  
for 10 days).
I'll be back in Hamilton afterwards, but I'll still have a guest, so  
I won't be doing anything major then, either.
So as far as I'm concerned, go ahead with the release, global vars  
can wait.
The Simons are threatening a 6.4.1 within "a couple of weeks", too;  
Simon PJ mis-fixed a TH bug in the stable tree (see sourceforge,  
don't remmeber the number), that would require another workaround,  
but I hope he'll be able to really fix that before releasing. If not,  
we'de have to do a 0.8.1 with an extra workaround (I did work around  
the original 6.4 bug).
Anyway, great work on the docs (and probably on the makefiles, too,  
didn't have the time to try it out).

Cheers,

Wolfgang
