With this flag the primitive is not tested in primvars.ms but other
parts of the compiler can use the signature/flags.
Also, add a signature to every system boolean primitive.

The MRG32k3a generator is fast when using unboxed floating-point
arithemtic. Since the Scheme compiler doesn't yet support that,
build MRG32k3a into the kernel and provide access via
`pseudo-random-generator` functions.

controversial, unless I damaged something in the process of integrating
them with other recent changes. the user's guide and release notes
have been updated as well to reflect the changes of interest to end
users.
- the body of load-library is now wrapped in a $pass-time with
to show the time spent loading libraries separately from the time
spent in expand.
syntax.ss
- interpret now plays the pass-time game
interpret.ss
- added compile-time-value? predicate and
compile-time-value-value accessor
syntax.ss, primdata.ss,
8.ms, primvars.ms, root-experr*
- $pass-stats now returns accurrate stats for the currently timed
pass.
7.ss
- compile-whole-program and compile-whole-library now propagate
recompile info from the named wpo file to the object file
to support maybe-compile-program and maybe-compile-library in
the case where compile-whole-{program,library} overwrites the
original object file.
compile.ss,
7.ms, mat.ss, primvars.ms
- replaced the ancient and unusable bintar with one that creates
a useful tarball for binary installs
bintar
- generated Mf-install InstallBin (InstallLib, InstallMan) now
correctly indirects through InstallPrefix if the --installbin
(--installlib, --installman) configure flag is not present.
src/configure
- removed definition of generate-procedure-source-information
patch.ss
- guardian tconc cells are now allocated in generation 0 in the hope
that they can be released more quickly.
gc.c
- added ftype-guardian syntax: (ftype-guardian A) creates a new
guardian for ftype pointers of type A, the first base field (or
one of the first base fields in the case of unions) of which must
be a word-sized integer with native endianness representing a
reference count. ftype pointers are registered with and retrieved
from the guardian just like objects are registered with and
retrieved from any guardian. the difference is that the garbage
collector decrements the reference count before resurrecting an
ftype pointer and resurrects only those whose reference counts
become zero, i.e., are ready for deallocation.
ftype.ss, cp0.ss, cmacros.ss, cpnanopass.ss, prims.ss, primdata.ss,
gc.c,
4.ms, root-experr*
- fixed a bug in automatic recompilation handling of missing include
files specified with absolute pathnames or pathnames starting with
"./" or "..": was erroring out in file-modification-time with a
file-not-found or other exception rather than recompiling.
syntax.ss,
7.ms, root-experr*, patch*
- changed inline vector-for-each and string-for-each code to
put the last call to the procedure in tail position, as was
already done for the library definitions and for the inline
code for for-each.
cp0.ss,
5_4.ms, 5_6.ms
- the compiler now generates better inline code for the bytevector
procedure. instead of one byte memory write for each argument,
it writes up to 4 (32-bit machines) or 8 (64-bit machines) bytes
at a time, which almost always results in fewer instructions and
fewer writes.
cpnanopass.ss,
bytevector.ms
- packaged unchanging implicit reader arguments into a single record
to reduce the number of arguments.
read.ss
- recoded run-vector to handle zero-length vectors. it appears
we're not presently generating empty vectors (representing empty
groups), but the fasl format permits them.
7.ss
