    Changes included:

       1.a new benchmark for realtime testing called sched_rr
       2.a fix to YIELD code in pset.c which could result in a hang after
            cpu assign of a busy cpu on Linux 2.2.16.
       3.the release of a multi run queue prototype.

    Note that the multi run queue patch is for sched.c only. It will be integrated
    with loadable modules and psets as soon as we have final 2_4 bits. Performance
    numbers for the multi queue scheduler are provided in a separate white paper.

    Watch for our demonstration at the HP booth in the upcoming Linux World!
