The released RC-packages are broken because the step-by-step guide for
producing releases wasn't followed. There is a script that automates most,
if not all of it so I don't understand why this was skipped. Now we have two
broken RCs and some manual fixing to do to make the release script get back
on track. Also we've missed two chances of catching possible release
procedure bugs, due to for example including jimtcl as a submodule.

Release manager, please follow
http://openocd.berlios.de/doc/doxygen/html/releases.html and use the release
script for all releases, including RCs.
