ea31d04d40 Add entry for newbus. It is rather long, but lots of nits can shoot
people with this upgrade.  Lemme know what you think, or any
corrections that should be made to it.

Corrected a few typos based on submissions from various people.

Add note that make aout-to-elf is currently broken and what to do to
work around it.  This is implied by make -DWANT_AOUT being broken, but
that isn't obvious to many people.

8172568955 Added a whole lot of information on upgrading with egcs and the common
problems discussed in -current up through approx april 7th.  Those
more in the know please read these changes and send me corrections.
I've only hit a few of the cases, not all of them, so my reporting is
second hand at best.

Thanks to those people that used HEADS UP in their message.  Large,
rabid mammals to those that wanted to beat the /etc/rc* horse with the
phrase "heads up" in the subject line.

9857e58226 Convert to HTML. Verified to work on Netscape 4.5 and Netscape
3.something.  We were getting a lot of URL links in this file and it
seemed like a good idea to convert this file to html so people can
follow them easily.

This does not use the doc tools to generate.  I'm doing it all by hand
at the moment.
