[gnugo-devel] paul_3_15.7

[bump]

Most outstanding patches have been added to the CVS.

I'm planning on adding paul_3_15.5 later. Originally
my testing seemed to show that this patch is slow.

But I now think that is not true. Inge has pointed out
that my method of timing is flawed. I just timed it a
third time and found no appreciable slowdown. (The
first timing can be ignored because I was running
gnome at the time.) My latest experiment has it
running in 9080 seconds, only 65 seconds slower than
the last time I ran the regressions. (Unfortunately
this also includes Gunnar's patch, but it's unlikely
that Gunnar's patch is a speedup.)

Paul pointed out to me that there isn't really anything 
in the patch that should make it slow.

About the patch paul_3_15.7, this adds a line to
patterns/Makefile:

josekidb.c : $(DBBUILT) mkpat$(EXEEXT)
           cat  $(DBBUILT) | ./mkpat -b joseki >josekidb.c
           cat  $(DBBUILT) | ./mkpat -C joseki_c >>josekidb.c

After that we get a bunch of error messages:

<stdin>(5987) : warning : duplicated patterns encountered (JH345 and JH357)
<stdin>(8685) : warning : duplicated patterns encountered (JH159 and JH526)

I don't understand why the patterns are added twice. In any case 
let's leave this patch until after the 3.3.15 release.
