* New upstream release - "mostly a bugfix release, fixing GC and HTTP issues
  from 5.6.56":
  - Garbage collection fixes:
    + Avoid crash on recursive GC signalling
    + Add support for A_MPZ in life-gc walker (crasher)
    + Call signal handlers at a safe place whilst backtracking.
    + Fix possible crash of profiler on GC.
    + Misc. GC fixes
  - HTTP fixes:
    + http_read_request/3 throws error on illegal request and
      http_wrapper/5.
    + http_open/3 now raises an error if the URL is not well-formed
      instead of failing silently.
  - Other fixes:
    + Fix possible crash in copy_term/2 etc. on 32-bit systems.
    + Avoid import messages from module user in saved states.
  - New features:
    + library(terms) for enhanced compatibility to YAP/Quintus/SICStus.
    + Use PceEmacs as default editor if XPCE is available.
    + zcompare/3, analogous to compare/3 for FD variables.
    + constraint element/3, analogous to nth/1.
* Build CHR on arm and armel again after GC fixes (disabled in 5.6.58-2).
