Well, the problem is there is a huge progress between the kaffe version
in testing and the one in the cvs head.

Also, I've just talked with Jim Pick who told me he'll drop the 1.1.5
tag and re-tag later. So cvs head will be 1.1.5

I'll upload an up-to-date release from the cvs head in experimental
tomorrow, I propose we wait Jim or Robilad to re-tag 'stable' or at
least 'ok for development'.
