[CWEB] New release 4.6.
Major changes since CWEB 4.5:
* Restore '\T' macro backward compatibility.
CWEB 4.3 introduced a major change in the '\T' macro to allow C++ 'hex
exponent' notation (e.g., 0x1FFFFp10). This made CWEAVE/CTWILL mutually
incompatible with non-matching versions of their set of macros and v.v.
This release tries to reestablish the standard behavior at least for
numeric constants. Of course, 'old' CWEAVE/CTWILL won't deliver on 'hex
exponents' in the CWEB input, but those should be rare anyway.
* Restore 'classic' PDF page dimensions.
Heiko's PDF files of 2014 used 'Executive' page dimensions, i.e.,
7.5in times 10in. C/WEB's internal inch values suggest to use those
plus a 0.5in border on each side.
* Revert meaning of option 'c'.
Option 'c' is OFF by default to avoid spurious entries in build.log.
* 'squash'/'reduce' have been straightened out for k=1,..,4.
* Code beautifications for 'make fullmanual'.
* Code cleanup for internal reasons.
* Cleanup in 'prod.w' (indentation et al.).
* New 'prod-cweave.w' (along 'prod-twill.w') for material from CWEBbin.
* Fixes for option '-o' (didn't work as advertised in border cases).
* New signature for the 'make_ministring' function in CTWILL.
