I CAN HAZ NEW BRANCH?

I just checked the changelogs on trunk and I don't think anything's 
happened since I created the merge branch (in r709) except James 
O'Gorman's patches to the build system, which I believe I've already 
merged.

So I intend to replace trunk with chris/merge once I've done that.

After that chris/merge will no longer exist, but chris/general will 
continue to, and will be the place where I do most of my work. I'll try to 
keep merging into trunk regularly to avoid the same thing happening again. 
Alternatively, I might start using bazaar as a local repository and using 
tailor to export changesets to trunk when they're ready.

Thank you all for your support! I couldn't have done it without you.

Cheers, Chris.
