* - Fix 'int n((0));' and related syntax.
* - Fixes problem with re-using artificial source files.
* - Add G__get_class_autoloading_table() returning the library name for a class name; used by TCint to determine whether the enclosing class's auto-load entry should be set.
* - Fix <https://savannah.cern.ch/bugs/?32403> and "operator std::string()" by skipping "std::" and setting G__vartype for conversion functions.
* - Add better support for indirect self reference
* - Correct the constness in the case: Object * const &front() const; (i.e Object*const vs Object const*).

* - Fix for passing the result of post increment directly to a function taking a parameter by reference (for example cout << c++;

*
* 5.17.00 Dec 21, 2008
* 6.2.00 Dec 21, 2008
* - CINT stand-alone can be checked out as svn co http://root.cern.ch/svn/root/trunk/cint (current development snapshot) or http://root.cern.ch/svn/root/tags/cint/cint-5.17.00 (release).
* - libcint is now called libCint.
* - CINT's files have been renamed (the "v6_" prefix is removed), its dictionary files are now moved to a new subdirectory of src called "dict".
* - Support for new platforms (MacOSX 10.5, MIPS, HPPA, MSVC2008, FreeBSD 7.0).
* - Makefile targets for RMP and debian packages, thanks to Daniel Barna.
* - Don't automatically use /tmp directory for temporary files but rely on CINTTMPDIR, TMP, or TEMP environment variables.
* - Remove loadfile of bool.h
* - Simplify and fix parsing of cast to basic type.
* - Fix parsing of templated operators and constness determination of conversion operators' (return) type.
* - Better error message for dangling parentheses.
* - Fixes concerning CINT's representation of size_t, char* vs. const char* in CINT's C API.
* - Fix function overload resolution involving enums.
* - Remove unused long.dll.
* - Fix treatment of break in loops.
* - Introduce cintdictversion.h holding a version number for the CINT dictionary API. This file is useful to determine when dictionaries need to be regenerated.
* - Improved initialization of class static variable that are objects.
* - Dictionaries for templated functions are now accessible both as func<int>(int) and func(int).
* - Fixes for template parameters being arrays, functions returning templated classes, allowing CINT to parse T*const&.
* - Support qt cintdll for Qt4.
* - Corrected the handling of function parameter of type 'reference to bool'.
* - Avoid incorrectly matching a non-static class member function when called without an object (i.e. typically TString::Form(...));). Previously this was allowed and lead to a segfault.
* - Extended "#pragma link C++ defined_in filename;" to look for the file name in the same include paths as G__loadfile (i.e. previously defined_in was restrict to full path names and relative path names). Allow quote around the file name.
* - CINT now also keeps track (see .files) of the libraries that have been loaded indirectly (i.e. via a hard link as opposed to via G__loadfile for example) and that contain a CINT dictionary.
* === THIS WILL BE THE LAST CINT5 RELEASE, THE NEXT WILL BE A CINT7 RELEASE! ===
* Starting from the next version, the new CINT core version will be the default: you will have to explicitly specify "./configure --coreversion=old" to get CINT5; we are only planning to support CINT7.
* 7.3.00 Dec 21, 2008
* First release of CINT7 using Reflex as reflection database.
