Thanks again to David Bateman for all his hard work to get this
snapshot ready.

This version includes many new features, including integer data types,
inline functions, function handles, concatenation of structs, cell
arrays and user-defined types, and better compatibility with the
leading brand.

Although I believe that 2.1.60 will be quite useable, there have been
many changes and experience says that any number of unexpected problems
could show up just after the tar file hits the ftp site, so 2.1.57
remains the recommended version for now.

As always, if your favorite bug is still not fixed, please report it.
