[ANN] ECL 9.8.2 (bugfix release)

ECL 9.8.2:
==========

* Bugs fixed:

- The C inline expansion for sin, cos, and tan were wrong due to three
recently introduced typos.

- The C inline form of SQRT did not work when ECL was built with
--enable-longdouble.

- When building FASL files, the output file name was not surrounded by
double quotes, thus breaking when the file name had spaces (only
mingw32).

* Visible changes:

- A new configuration flag, --enable-rpath, allows hardcoding in ECL the
location of its shared library. This is not needed in Windows, it should
work on all supported platforms and its purpose is to simplify the
installation of ECL in nonstandard locations.
