[avr-libc-dev] Released avr-libc 1.4.8

[Joerg Wunsch]

After fixing the setjmp bug (#22153), I noticed a number of changes
had been accumulated on the 1.4 branch already.  As I think it's time
to say the 1.4 branch good-bye now (unless something similarly serious
as the setjmp bug pops up again), I decided to roll a final 1.4.8
release, supposed to be the last 1.4.x one.

The source tarball is available under:

http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/avr-libc/avr-libc-1.4.7.tar.bz2
http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/avr-libc/avr-libc-1.4.7.tar.bz2.sig

I did not prepare any documentation updates, as this is essentially a
maintenance upgrade on release 1.4.7 only.

A binary release can be found here:
