Description

New point version

Changes from 5.3.0 to 5.3.1
---------------------------

1. More subtle issues related to uninitialized array elements have
   been fixed.

2. A number of bugs in the debugger related to handling of arrays
   have been fixed.

3. Some subtle bugs in the API have been fixed.

4. Use of MPFR is now possible again on 32-bit Power PC Mac systems.

5. Race conditions around broken pipes for system() and read and write
   pipes should now be closed off.

6. Support for OSF/1 has been removed.

   number of corner cases.

9. As usual, there have been several minor code cleanups and bug fixes.
   See the ChangeLog for details.
