3/18/99 (feature change) The glob command ignores the
FS_CASE_IS_PRESERVED bit on file systesm and always returns
exactly what it gets from the system. (stanton)
*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***

3/19/99 (new feature) Added support for --enable-64bit.  For now,
this is only supported on Solaris 7 64bit (SunOS 5.7) using the Sun
compiler (redman).

3/23/99 (bug fix) Fixed fileevents and gets on Windows consoles
so that non-blocking channels do not block on partial input lines.
(redman)

3/23/99 (bug fix) Added a new Tcl_ServiceModeHook interface.
This is used on Windows to avoid the various problems that people
have been seeing where the system hangs when tclsh is running
outside of the event loop. As part of this, renamed
TclpAlertNotifier back to Tcl_AlertNotifier since it is public.
(stanton)

*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***

3/29/99 (bug fix)  Removed the stub functions and changed the stub
macros to just use the name without params. Pass &tclStubs into the
interp (don't use tclStubsPtr because of collisions with the stubs on
Solaris). (redman)








4/1/99 (bug fix) Fixed the Ultrix multiple symbol definition problem.
Now, even Tcl includes a copy of the Tcl stub library. (redman)

4/1/99 (bug fix) Internationalized the registry package.

3/30/99 (bug fix) Loadable modules are now unloaded at the last
possible moment during Tcl_Finalize to fix various exit-time crashes.

3/30/99 (bug fix) Tcl no longer calls setlocale().  It looks at
env(LANG) and env(LC_TYPE) instead.  (stanton)

code into "dde eval" command.  The DDE package can be loaded

4/5/99 (bug fix) Changed safe-tcl so that the encoding command
is an alias that masks out the "encoding system" subcommand.
