-* Pure: functions of signature "... -> theory -> theory * ..." have been reoriented
-  to "... -> theory -> ... * theory" in order to allow natural usage in combination

-* Library: new module Pure/General/name_mangler providing a functor for generic
-    name mangling (bijective mapping from any expression values to strings).
-
-* SML systems: added
-    print: 'a -> 'a
-  to smlnj. PolyML provides such a function which as a side effect prints out
-  a string representation of its argument. By adding print to smlnj, it is possible
-  to use "print" for debugging purpose without breaking smlnj compatibility.
