[MLton] summer release?

[Matthew Fluet]

With the 64-bit port nearing completion, I think it would be very nice 
to have an official release sometime over Summer 2007.  In addition to 
the 64-bit port, there have been a fair number of bug fixes and some new 
features (eg., x86-darwin port) since our last release on 20051202 
(nearly one and a half years ago).

I've announced the experimental amd64-packages.  If there are no serious 
problems reported, then I'll plan on merging the x86_64 branch into 
trunk in about a week.  After that, we can hopefully focus on polishing 
loose ends for a release.

I guess the biggest loose end is the MinGW port.  I believe that each of 
Polyspace, Reactis, and SSH have done some work; it would be nice to 
make sure that patches have a chance to be reviewed and committed.
