0. Preface
----------
-This is a pre-release of 8.0.3, tcl_patchLevel "8.0.3-4"
-This is close, but not final. There are two major bugs we
-plan to fix before 8.0.3 goes final:
-1. On UNIX, socket I/O is not properly retried after signals.
-2. On Windows, keyboard traversal events from Alt-key sequences
-are not properly handled. In particular, if you select the
-system menu Close command from the keyboard, you do not get
-the WM_DELETE_WINDOW protocol event.
+This is the last pre-release of 8.0.3, tcl_patchLevel "8.0.3-5"
+This is very close, but not final. We plan code freeze on
+Thursday, and so I'll be doing the 8.0.3 release then. But, please
+try your compiles against this version to flush out any problems.
This release is being made early to help
with the Consortium CD project. Please do not advertise or

7. A new implementation of auto_mkindex to support [incr Tcl] classes.
8. New IMPORT/EXPORT macros to facilitate building DLL's on windows.
+Bug fixes relative to previous pre-releases
+ Undid damage to the origninal EXPORT that appeared in 8.0.3-4
+ Resolved use of TCL_DBGX in configure scripts.
+ Fixed EINTR bug so system calls are retried after signals.
+ Fixed reverse vidio bitmaps
+ Several fixes to windows alt-keys and menus:
+ fixed bug in menus where bgerrors were not generated during menu callbacks
+ fixed memory leak in menu code
+ fixed Alt-key handling
+ fixed bug in menubar handling so menubar doesn't get destroyed when a
+ window is destroyed
