Thanks ...  this is now the official repository.

When doing a commit, even in a WIP branch, change the string in 
"patchlev.h" to indicate that.  For the "master", the "RCS"  
minor number should be incremented with every commit.  The major 
number should be incremented and minor number reset when a 
stable release is made.  This is the convention I have used 
since the first RCS checkin.

For WIP branches, add to that string what branch it is.

I wonder, looking forward, what will happen when there are 
hundreds of WIP branches, in various states.  

Now that we have the mechanism, I have a few myself ....  multi-
processor support, a modelgen branch with Verilog syntax.

Also, we need to include the plugin tarballs, and set up a way 
for anyone to have a space for their work on plugins.
