Update to SWI-Prolog 5.11.0
Notable changes in SWI-Prolog 5.11.0:
* ODBC now properly handles locale. This means you can
use it with Unicode if you use a UTF-8 based locale.
* Recently reported manifest problems around xpce should be
fixed with help from Degski.
* Message queues can now be destroyed while they have suspended
writers, making pipe-like cooperation between threads much easier.
* Using set_prolog_flag(qcompile, auto), you can ask the system
to automatically maintain quick-load versions of your source-files.
This can greatly improve development comfort for really large
applications.
* Jeff Rosenwald contributed an interface for Google protocol buffers
Notable changes in SWI-Prolog 5.9.10:
* A lot of stuff has been added to enhance the compatibility to SICStus.
This involves some changes to the kernel, some additions to the libraries
and starting and populating a SICStus emulation layer. All this was
initiated by the with to make the Alpino NLP parser suite
(http://www.let.rug.nl/vannoord/alp/Alpino/) available for SWI-Prolog.
Thanks to Gertjan van Noord, this is now almost reality (there
are some remaining tweaks, notably with the Tcl/Tk interface).
* Also various enhancements and fixes to the tabbed-editing support for
the built-in editor.
