    * NOTES: Added library performance figures and more related software.

    * README: Changed Solaris 2.7 to Solaris 7.

    * EXAMPLES: Added note about not using the library in release builds.

    * README: Documented the USEMMAP option.

    * src/option.c:
    Added the USEMMAP option for UNIX platforms that support mmap().

    * src/memory.c:
    Added support for allocating memory using mmap() on UNIX platforms that
    support it.

    * src/memory.h:
    Changed the name of the watch point control file handle field and added
    a memory mapped file handle field.

    * src/config.h: Added MP_MMAP_SUPPORT and MP_MMAP_FILENAME.

    * src/alloc.c:
    Fixed the problem in splitnode() whereby the free node would be lost if
    there was no more system memory to allocate the leftmost or rightmost
    nodes.

    * src/symbol.c:
    Don't attempt to read from _DYNAMIC if its address is NULL, since that
    will be the case if the program is statically linked.

    * bin/mupdate:
    Only update ChangeLog if it has changed since the last release.

Tue Oct  5 17:35:19 1999  Graeme Roy  <[e-mail]>

    * src/info.c:
    Fixed a bug in __mp_checkinfo() when all allocations are pages and no
    freed allocations are being reused, since we don't need to check
    overflow buffers if the allocation has been freed.

    * src/stack.c:
    Fixed a bug in __mp_newframe() if using MP_BUILTINSTACK_SUPPORT when the
    loop went round one too many times, causing an infinite loop.

Sun Oct  3 22:50:22 1999  Graeme Roy  <[e-mail]>

    * src/inter.c:
    Fixed problem in __mp_info() where the check for a known memory block
    was doing an || instead of an && in the test.
