2004-10-26	* Don't use ATmake / ATmatch anymore, nor the ATMatcher class.	Eelco Dolstra
	Instead we generate data bindings (build and match functions) for the constructors specified in `constructors.def'. In particular this removes the conversions between AFuns and strings, and Nix expression evaluation now seems 3 to 4 times faster.
2004-10-26	* String/path concatenation operator (`+').	Eelco Dolstra

2004-08-04	* Allow primops with more that 1 arguments.	Eelco Dolstra

2004-04-05	* When something goes wrong in the evaluation of a Nix expression,	Eelco Dolstra
	print a nice backtrace of the stack, rather than vomiting a gigantic (and useless) aterm on the screen. Example: error: while evaluating file `.../pkgs/system/test.nix': while evaluating attribute `subversion' at `.../pkgs/system/all-packages-generic.nix', line 533: while evaluating function at `.../pkgs/applications/version-management/subversion/default.nix', line 1: assertion failed at `.../pkgs/applications/version-management/subversion/default.nix', line 13 Since the Nix expression language is lazy, the trace may be misleading. The purpose is to provide a hint as to the location of the problem.
2004-02-04	* Use a map to lookup primops.	Eelco Dolstra
	* Various performance improvements in the evaluator. * Do not link against unused (and missing!) libraries (-lsglr, etc.).
2004-02-03	* Verify that all variables in a Nix expression are defined.	Eelco Dolstra

2003-11-19	* Refactoring: put the Nix expression evaluator in its own library so	Eelco Dolstra
	that it can be used by multiple programs.
