+o Changes in backup scripts
+  - cleaned up considerably; notices error conditions better over rsh
+  - DUMP_REMIND_SCRIPT is now an option in backup-specs
+  - new file dump-remind is an example of a DUMP_REMIND_SCRIPT
+o Superfluous "Reading dirname" was a bug; fixed.
+o Incompatibility problems with a bug on Solaris are fixed.
+o New option --gzip (aliases are --ungzip and -z); calls gzip instead
+  of compress.  Also, --use-compress-program lets you specify any
+  compress program.  --compress-block is renamed --block-compress and
+  now requires one of the three compression options to be specified.
+o Several error messages are cleaned up.
+o Directory owners are now set properly when running as root.
+o Provide DUMP_REMIND_SCRIPT in backup-specs as a possible option 
+  for --info-script.
+o Behave better with broken rmt servers.
+o Dump scripts no longer use --atime-preserve; this causes a nasty probem.
+o Several Makefile cleanups.
