name for a Scheme object (now a void*), and SCM as 32 bit word for
storing tags and immediates (now a long int). Introduced
SCM_ASWORD and SCM_ASSCM for conversion. Fixed various dubious
code in the process: arbiter.c (use macros), unif.c (scm_array_p),
added append docs from R4RS.
* strings.c: Docstring typo fix, + eliminate unneeded IMP tests.
Thanks Dirk Hermann!
* chars.h: Provide SCM_CHARP, SCM_CHAR, SCM_MAKE_CHAR and
deprecate SCM_ICHRP, SCM_ICHR, SCM_MAKICHR. Thanks Dirk Hermann!
* *.h, *.c: Use SCM_CHARP, SCM_CHAR, SCM_MAKE_CHAR throughout.
Drop use of SCM_P for function prototypes... assume an ANSI C
compiler. Thanks Dirk Hermann!

throw.c: Update copyright years; these files have been worked on
significantly in 1997, but only had copyright years for 1996.
Also, change name of copyright holder on some from Mikael
Djurfeldt to Free Software Foundation; he has signed papers
assigning the changes to the FSF.
srcprop.h, tags.h, throw.c, unif.c: Added new selectors
SCM_SETAND_CAR, SCM_SETAND_CDR, SCM_SETOR_CAR and SCM_SETOR_CDR.
Motivation: Safer use. Some other macros are defined in terms of
these operations. If these are defined using the SCM_SETCXR
(<e1>, SCM_CXR (<e1>) <op> <e2>) pattern a complex <e1> will lead
to inefficiency and an <e1> with side-effects could potentially
break. Also, these particular operations are heavily utilized in
the garbage collector. In unoptimized code there will be a
measurable speedup.

vports.c: Cleaned up use of pairs: Don't make any special
assumptions about the internal structure of selectors and
mutators: SCM_CXR (<e1>) = <e2> --> SCM_SETCXR (<e1>, <e2>),
SCM_CXR (<e1>) &= <e2> --> SCM_SETAND_CXR (<e1>, <e2>) etc.
(Among other things, this change makes it easier to build Guile
with certain compilers which have problems with casted lvalues.)
main #include path; put most of them in a subdirectory called
'libguile'. This avoids naming conflicts between Guile header
files and system header files (of which there were a few).
* Makefile.in (pkgincludedir): Deleted.
(innerincludedir): New variable; this and $(includedir) are enough.
(INCLUDE_CFLAGS): Search for headers in "-I$(srcdir)/..".
(installed_h_files): Divide this up. Now this variable lists
those header files which should go into $(includedir) (i.e. appear
directly in the #include path), and ...
(inner_h_files): ... this new variable says which files appear in
a subdirectory, and are referred to as <libguile/mumble.h>.
(h_files): List them both.
(install): Create innerincludedir, not pkgincludedir. Put
the installed_h_files and inner_h_files in their proper places.
(uninstall): Corresponding changes.
