I've updated most of the documentation to reflect the current state of 
affairs (as I understand them).  Check out
   http://mlton.org/Credits
and update if I've overlooked something.

I've also been conservative about mentioning newly supported platforms. 
There have been some commits referencing IA64 and PowerPC64, but I'm not 
sure of the extent of the support; seems only for HPUX and AIX 
(respectively).
