I was looking at the calendar and realized that it
has been more than a year since the PDL-2.4.3
release.  There have been several portability
issues and bugs resolved (or at least detected!)
since then.

It seems like we could use a quick point release
of a PDL-2.4.4 to fix:

* xvals.t test failure
* {Net,Free}BSD make problem (cycles in graph)
* {Net,Free}BSD uudecode prob in PDL::IO::Dumper
* flexraw.t test failure (g77 vs gfortran vs g95?)
* Inline::Pdlpp failure on win32

The resulting PDL should be able to config/build/test/install
on the following OSes (if we don't regress somewhere):

* Linux
* Netbsd
* Freebsd
* Darwin
* Solaris
* MSWin32
* Cygwin

Our current 2.4.3 release works on more
OS platforms than any previous release by
testers.cpan.org reports.

These 4 fixes alone would improve on that
and help with general stability and perceptions
of robustness.

How about a Dec07/Jan08 point release?
