version 1.4.2:

	* A bug fix -- corrects a subtle problem with memalign.
	Hoard now successfully passes Wolfram Gloger's
	malloc-test (included with the distribution).

version 1.4.1:

	* A few fixes for backward compatibility with Solaris 2.6.

version 1.4:

	* Doubled the speed of calls to free().
	* Further improved scalability, especially on Solaris.
	* Reduced memory consumption and improved performance on
	uniprocessors.
	* Changed the lock implementation for Windows from spin to
	spin-yield, as in the UNIX implementations (thanks to Paul
	Larson of Microsoft Research for pointing out how to do this).
	* Removed the shbench benchmark from the distribution, per
	request from MicroQuill, Inc.

version 1.3.3:

	* Changed some casts of pointers to unsigned longs
	to allow Hoard to work on 64-bit machines (read: SGI O2K).

version 1.3.2:

	* Minor modifications for the Windows NT port,
	along with workspace and project files for Visual C++
	(thanks to Arnd Bohm).

version 1.3.1:

	* Included a customized version of 'atexit' for Linux,
	since the newest version of libc (2.1.2) caused Hoard to
	deadlock (it called malloc internally).

version 1.3:

	* Ported to the BeOS (thanks to Trey Boudreau of Be).
	* Replaced the per-sizeclass locks with per-heap locks,
	since this has no impact on scalability and reduces Hoard's
	static footprint.

version 1.2:

	* Dramatically improved performance with fast user-level locks
 	for SPARC, x86, and the SGI.
	* Added sproc support (for the SGI).
	* Hoard can now be built under Visual C++ (thanks to John
	Hickin).

version 1.1:

	* Added autoconf and automake scripts to facilitate compilation
	and installation (including shared libraries).
	(thanks to Ganesan Rajagopal of Novell for submitting the scripts)

version 1.0.3:

	* Hoard now scales on OS's besides Linux and Solaris.
	(the thread ID hash function was pathological for other OS's)

version 1.0.2:

	* Ported to Windows NT.
	* Added in the benchmark suite (larson, linux-scalability, shbench).

version 1.0.1:

	* Fixed a build problem.

version 1.0:

	* Initial release.
