Numerous changes in the RTS to get GUM-4.06 working (currently works with
parfib-ish programs). Most changes are isolated in the rts/parallel dir.

rts/parallel/:
  The most important changes are a rewrite of the (un-)packing code (Pack.c)
  and changes in LAGA, GALA table operations (Global.c) expecially in
  rebuilding the tables during GC.

rts/:
  Minor changes in Schedule.c, GC.c (interface to par specific root marking
  and evacuation), and lots of additions to Sanity.c (surprise ;-)
  Main.c change for startup: I use a new function rts_evalNothing to
  start non-main-PEs in a PAR || SMP setup (RtsAPI.c)

includes/:
  Updated GranSim macros in PrimOps.h.

lib/std:
  Few changes in PrelHandle.c etc replacing ForeignObj by Addr in a PAR
  setup (we still don't support ForeignObjs or WeakPtrs in GUM).
  Typically use
    #define FILE_OBJECT	    Addr
  when dealing with files.

hslibs/lang/:
  Same as above (in Foreign(Obj).lhs, Weak.lhs, IOExts.lhs etc).
