++The config file syntax changed between versions 0.8 and 0.9. In order
++to implement all of the feature/enhancement requests in an elegant and
++self-consistent way, the configuration grammar had to be changed in a
++non-backward-compatible way. In particular, groups are now values, so
++the old syntax:
++
++group
++{
++ ...
++}
++
++must now be written as:
++
++group =
++{
++ ...
++};
++
++Note that the trailing semicolon, which was previously optional, is
++now required. Also note that a colon (':') can be used in place of the
++equals sign.

++Flex and Bison are not required in order to build this
++package. However, if you modify the .l or .y files, you must have Flex
++(2.5.31 or better) and Bison (2.1 or better), respectively.

++To successfully compile using MinGW (with gcc 4.4.0 or later), it may
++be necessary to modify the file "mingw32\4.4.0\libstdc++.la", changing line 11

++
++library_names='libstdc++.dll.a'
++
++to:
++
++library_names='libstdc++.a'
