                   NEW FEATURES in version 0.9.4.

*   automatic unwrapping of is extended to 
    java.lang.(Boolean,Short,...) objects.
*   The TestSuite is _greatly_ expanded. Now all code generator tables are
    automatically tested.
*   Bugfixes (constants folding of string concatenations,
    multidimensional array access, dot operator on elements of arrays,
    objects unwrapping in conditionals, and more smaller/subtler bugs).

                   BUGS

*   JEL does not run under IBM JDK 1.1.8 on Linux with JIT on if it was
    compiled by JDK 1.1 compiler with -O flag. This is either problem of
    javac or IBM's JIT. Note that distributed version is compiled with
    jdk 1.2 compiler and works with IBM JDK 1.1.8 JIT.

*   In Microsoft JVM with JIT enabled "d2i" instruction was not implemented
    correctly. To see if this BUG is fixed in Your JVM run the JEL
    testsuite, if all tests pass You are safe.
