[Caml-list] OCaml 3.06 bug-fix release

[Caml-list] OCaml 3.06 bug-fix release

[Xavier Leroy]

A couple of embarrassing bugs crept into Objective Caml 3.05, so we've
just released version 3.06, available from the usual place:

        http://caml.inria.fr/ocaml/distrib.html

This is essentially a bug-fix release, with no new features.  Users of
3.05 are strongly encouraged to upgrade to 3.06.

For general info on Objective Caml, see http://caml.inria.fr.  Bug
reports go to caml-bugs@inria.fr, messages for the implementors to
caml@inria.fr, and general discussions to the mailing-list
caml-list@inria.fr, or the comp.lang.ml or comp.lang.functional
newsgroups.

Enjoy,

- Xavier Leroy, for the Objective Caml team.

[Caml-list] LablGTK 1.2.5 and windows binaries

[Jacques Garrigue]

Since Objective Caml 3.06 was released, and it is not binary
compatible with 3.05, I have updated LablGTK and LablGL windows
binaries:

    http://wwwfun.kurims.kyoto-u.ac.jp/soft/olabl/lablgtk.html
    http://wwwfun.kurims.kyoto-u.ac.jp/soft/olabl/lablgl.html

Note that lablgtk sources were also updated, the main goal being to
allow interactive use on windows: toplevel threads are supported
through a mechanism of call forwarding. For non-windows users, other
changes are only incremental.
