  Log:
  - Forced commit to describe the major changes in this version:
    * Polymorphic recursion is supported, using explicit type
      declarations on the recursively-defined identifiers.
    * First-class modules: module expressions can be embedded
      as values of the core language, then manipulated like
      any other first-class value, then projected back to the module level.
    * New operator to modify a signature a posteriori: S with
      type t := tau denotes signature S where the t type component
      is removed and substituted by the type tau elsewhere.
    * New notations for record expressions and record patterns:
      { lbl } as shorthand for { lbl = lbl }, and { ...; _ } marks
      record patterns where some labels were intentionally omitted.
    * Local open let open ... in ... now supported by popular demand.
    * Type variables can be bound as type parameters to functions;
      such types are treated like abstract types within the function
      body, and like type variables (possibly generalized) outside.
    * The module type of construct enables to recover the module type
      of a given module.
    * Explicit method override using the method! keyword, with associated
      warnings and errors.
