    Update to CLISP 2.48:

    Important notes
    ---------------

    * Multiple threads of execution are now experimentally supported
    (not ready for prime time yet).
    Thanks to Vladimir Tzankov <vtzankov@gm...>.
    See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/mt.html> for details.

    * Module libsvm has been upgraded to the upstream version 2.89.
    See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/libsvm.html> for details.

    * Module Berkeley-DB now supports Berkeley DB 4.7.
    (older versions 4.* are, of course, still supported).
    See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/berkeley-db.html> for details.

    * Module readline now supports readline 6.0.
    (older versions 5.* are, of course, still supported).
    See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/readline-mod.html> for details.

    * Passing :EXECUTABLE 0 to EXT:SAVEINITMEM results in an executable
    image which delegates processing of all the usual CLISP command line
    options to the :INIT-FUNCTION.
    See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/image.html> for details.

    * Driver clisp accepts "-b" to print the installation directory.
    See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/clisp.html#opt-printlibdir> for details.

    * Add file clisp.m4 so that the packages which use CLISP can check
    whether it is properly installed and has the required version.

    * POSIX:COPY-FILE now accepts :METHOD :HARDLINK-OR-COPY.
    See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/syscalls.html#copy-file> for details.

    * New function POSIX:WAIT calls waitpid or wait4.
    See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/syscalls.html#wait> for details.

    * New function EXT:TRIM-IF removes leading and trailing matches.
    See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/seq-func-ext.html#trim-if> for
    details.

    * New user command "LocalSymbols" (abbreviated ":ls").
    See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/repl.html#debugger-main-deb-step>
    for details.

    * Commands "add" and "create" replace "add-module-set", "add-module-sets" and
    "create-module-set" in clisp-link.
    See <http://clisp.cons.org/impnotes/modules.html#clisp-link> for details.

    * Bug fixes:
    + Better support of :START and :END arguments in NEW-CLX. [ 2159172 ]
    + Fix LOAD-LOGICAL-PATHNAME-TRANSLATIONS when *LOAD-PATHS* contains
      wild pathnames (introduced in 2.47). [ 2198109 ]
    + Module NEW-CLX now has the XLIB:QUEUE-EVENT function,
      implemented by Philippe Brochard <hocwp@fr...>.
    + Extend the domain of LOG to larger BIGNUMs and RATIOs. [ 1007358 ]
    + Avoid a segfault on (EXPT <HUGE> <HUGE>). [ 2807311 ]
    + Fix interaction of finalizers and weak objects. [ 1472478 ]

    * ANSI compliance:
    + Implement the ANSI (IGNORE #'FUNCTION) declaration.
