[M3devel] 5.8 Release?

I hadn't looked and hadn't realized. I'll look.

I thought things were as about up to date as they would get (no LONGINT on

NT386, no Atomic, but "revised LONGINT" on others -- m3front matching

current, at least before more atomic changes).

There is the cvsup problem I was ignoring.

The bug report was good but didn't have e.g. the cvsup file.

 

I'll look at these things.

 

Fwiw, Modula-3 has really been quite stable for like 15 years now,

very few changes (too few), very few regressions, but definitely some.
