You know what to do :-).

  Bug: absolute globs do still need a special case.  `/*' works again now, but
  we still avoid creating names like `//tmp/foo'.

  Bug: avoid a putative race condition in signal.c.

  Documentation: extra parentheses around `~' and `!' expressions are
  forbidden.  Tom Duff's paper is not distributed with rc, but is
  available on the web.

  Release: rc-1.6b2.
