Tim, can we at least address the unresolved problems?

That is:

* doesn't pass tests suite.

* possible breakage of Vector.clone()

* -Wall warnings abound.

* Edouard's comments.

I agree to rush stuff out to people.

However, unlike Linux, kaffe does not have a stable release cycle.
Instead, a lot of people consider the betas "stable releases", even
though the name says otherwise.

Releasing the current snapshot will only give us a lot of problems
because we'll have to answer and fix questions; it also makes it less
usable for people to refer to.
