Release notes
-------------
Lots of stuff this time. 0.9 was not actually self-hosting, even
though it claimed to be. This version finally is self-hosting
(really!), meaning you can upgrade the installer with the command
"pear upgrade PEAR".
* new config paramers: http_proxy and umask
* HTTP proxy support when downloading packages
* generalized command handling code
* and fixed the bug that would not let commands have the
same options as "pear" itself
* added long options to every command
* added command shortcuts ("pear help shortcuts")
* added stub for Gtk installer
* some phpdoc fixes
* added class dependency detector (using ext/tokenizer)
* dependency handling fixes
* added OS_Guess class for detecting OS
* install files with the "platform" attribute set
only on matching operating systems
* PEAR_Remote now falls back to the XML_RPC package
if xmlrpc-epi is not available
* renamed command: package-list -> list
* new command: package-dependencies
* lots of minor fixes
