I uploaded new versions.
We're also redoing some low level support macros; these were (and have
been) okay so there is no real need to replace them but by using some
new features they could be done a bit nicer and they even became a bit
faster cq. have less imprint on memory usage, but that will only be
noticed in extreme documents that rely on them, like maybe thomas 1000
page natural tables or Massi's configuration extensive applications;
we'll see.
Wolfgang and I are checking these modules and related core code which
will take a while (the test suite runs ok) but any issues, if any, will
be solved fast. In due time it might bring some additional options.
