  Configure now assumed normal doubles
  Bumped version nr

  make list_suffix/1 and list_prefix/1 handle erl_parse() cons sequences
  modernized and cleaned up edoc documentation
  removed obsolete @spec annotations and fixed some -spec and -type annotations
  preserve line numbers when reverting representation
  updated author e-mail
  removed CVS keywords from source files
  Revise the autoconf tests for double middle endianness.
  Add test for floating-point output to float_SUITE.
  Unbreak floating point on middle-endian machines.
  Add support for NULL value in odbc:param_query
