To add one thing. Except the devel_0_37 branch everything is a bit
chaotic on CVS. Before starting to branch further we have to discuss
how, where to branch from etc.

Until now, the HEAD was supposed to be Millers version. That probably
would be a good point to branch off. But: the HEAD is currently broken,
I am going to try to fix this ASAP. (You will notice when you are able
to compile the HEAD again :)

In general, any suggestion how to organize this better is appreciated.
E.g. the "standard" way would be to make the HEAD the point we are
developing on.
