5.3.1

This is a production release that fixes a build problem in the FreeBSD base system, as well as a problem in the en_US locale. If you don't have problems with either, you do not need to upgrade.

5.3.0

This is a production release that adds features and has a few bug fixes.

First, support for editline and readline history has been added. To use editline, pass -e to configure.sh, and to use readline, pass -r.

Second, history support for Windows has been fixed and re-enabled.

Third, command-line options to set scale, ibase, obase, and seed were added. This was requested long ago, and I originally disagreed with the idea.

Fourth, the manuals had typos and were missing information. That has been fixed.

Fifth, the manuals received different formatting to be more readable as manpages.

In the book bc is already after readline, so we can simply add -r for configure.
