+Highlights of changes since rc-1.7. See ChangeLog for further details.
-Portability. A fix to the autoconfiguration means that the nasty
-longjmp() code is now omitted for all modern Unix systems; previously
-rc only did the Right Thing on Linux. The test for large files in
-trip.rc was removed, as this causes indigestion on file systems that
-don't support sparse files (the configuration and implementation of
-large file support is still present of course).

-Bug fixes. Broken symlinks now glob correctly. The variables $prompt

-environment when rc starts. EIO handling is now enabled for readline
-too. A few bogosities in the history program were fixed.
