 ** Pure 0.3 2008-06-06
 
 This release sports a lot of improvements as well as bug and portability
-fixes, see the ChangeLog for details. The build system has gone through a
-major overhaul, adding autoconf support. 64 bit support has been improved, and
-Pure now also works on MS Windows. Moreover, many library functions have been
-rewritten to make them tail-recursive, and some new functions have been added.
-Last but not least, the runtime support is now implemented as a separate
-shared library which makes it possible to link external modules against the
-runtime, and reduces the memory footprint when multiple instances of the
-interpreter are run as different processes.
