            This working version is believed to be stable, but

## Summary:

This is a bugfix release. Its main purpose is to solve a showstopper problem introduced into the x86 c-calls implementation which is used by NLFFI.

## Details:

Interactive System:
  - Command-line arguments are handled slightly differently:
    - system automatically quits after processing `-S`, `-H`, `-s` n or `-h` n if one of these appears as the last command-line argument
    - new option `-q` which forces a quit
Basis:
  - Race condition in signal handling code fixed.
MLRISC:
  - fixed problem with c-calls implementation on x86, preventing the compilation of calls of any C function returning any form of int
  - bug in `dijkstra.sml` fixed
  - bug in `udgraph.sml` fixed
  - some support for IBM assempler syntax (PPC) added
