Subject:	First alpha of fileutils 4.0

Hello.

It's taken me way too long, but I've finally packaged up the first alpha
of fileutils 4.0. It's available in source-form only:

http://www.phekda.freeserve.co.uk/richdawe/djgpp/fil40s-20000713.zip

This is probably of most interest to Eli and Prashant, since fileutils
uses some of the library of routines shared with shellutils, textutils.
There's still a lot to do - see gnu/filutil4.0/djgpp/readme.alpha - but I
think most of the filename-handling problems are fixed.

Thanks to Eli for his patches & advice - they made the job of porting a
lot easier. I hope I can finish the port off within a month.

Any comments/advice/nitpicks would be appreciated. Thanks, bye, Rich =]

PS: I'm going away for a couple of days on Friday, so please don't expect
a quick response at the weekend.
