Hi Peter,

I've moved some of the p2c files into different directories (I've
moved all files that gm2 does not need into p2c/.../p2cdoc).
Thus sadly you'll need to cvs checkout GM2
rather than cvs update.

Thanks for noticing this - I've rebuilt a new configure script
and checked it in.

I've taken the liberty of CC:ing the gm2 list as the cvs checkout
will be of interest to all,
