This pretty much completes the development cycle for 1.4.0, unless

anything major comes up.  Added some links to the webpage, information
how to customize the kernel in the source package, and ups the date,
though that will probably be done one more time.

UML KERNEL CUSTOMIZATION
------------------------
You may want to add your own customizations to the uml kernel. To
accomplish this you will need to understand that the Makefile runs
oldconfig on the configuration file ".config" which is first copied
from user-mode-linux/usr/lib/uml/config to .config in the
linux-$VERSION directory where the kernel sources reside. What this
means is that after doing a make config or one of its alternatives
from the kernel sources directory, you should copy the customized
configuration file you made to the ../user-mode-linux/usr/lib/uml
directory and then run gbootroot's Makefile.
