0.7.1.44:

	minor comment fixes which want to be synchronized in CVS (the
		BUGS change because bugs have incrementing numbers --
		which will become a nuisance with multiple committers,
		dunno what the long term fix is -- and the
		make.sh/cross-compile comments because DB and CSR have
		been fixing this on sbcl-internals and if I don't
		commit my corresponding fix soon I'll find it collides
		with theirs)

+  There's some sort of problem with aborting back out of the debugger
+  after a %DETECT-STACK-EXHAUSTION error in sbcl-0.7.1.38. In some cases
+  telling the debugger to ABORT doesn't get you back to the main REPL,
+  but instead just gives you another stack exhaustion error. The problem
+  doesn't occur in the trivial case

+    FROB

+  but it has happened in more complicated cases (which I haven't
+  figured out how to reproduce).
