A branch has been created for the 4.2.4 release. (branches/open64-4.2.4).
After a quick round of testing, the 4.2.4 binary and source packages will
be posted on the open64.net site, hopefully within a few days.

The trunk is now open for active development for the next release. Please
go ahead with any pending changes. Thanks.
