A small error crept into the distribution tar file for Gambit version 1.5 .
A number of object files (xxx.O) were missing for the default runtime library.
This made it impossible to bootstrap GSI (the Gambit Scheme interpreter) from
scratch as described in the documentation.  The correct tar file is now in
place.  To make it easier to try the interpreter, I have also made the binary
available (for SUN3, HP300 and GP1000 computers).
