Bug Fixes:
    --------------------------------------------------------------------
    Version:    2.5.0b
    Problem:    If TREVERSE is active, the thread next button/link
                for the second message in a thread would link to
                the next thread instead of the third message in the
                thread, if present.
    Solution:   Fixed in compute_msg_pos() in mhrcvars.pl.
    Version Fixed:      v2.5.0b2
    --------------------------------------------------------------------
    Version:    2.5.0b
    Problem:    Resource variables dependent on current index page
                number and/or page size can expand to incorrect
                values for main index pages.  The current page number
                and page size would always evaluate to zero.
    Solution:   Fixed in mhindex.pl.  replace_li_var() still depends
                on some variables being defined by the calling context,
                so local() still has to be used instead of my() for
                some variables if replace_li_var() is to be called.
    Version Fixed:      v2.5.0b2
    --------------------------------------------------------------------
    Version:    2.5.0b
    Problem:    Use of -quiet does not suppress
                "This is MHonArc v..." start message.
    Solution:   Fixed.
    Version Fixed:      v2.5.0b2
    --------------------------------------------------------------------

Changes:
    o   Long overdue update of ACKNOWLG file.

    o   New resources:

          TSLICELEVELS  -- Maximum depth for thread slices.

    o   New resource variables:

          $TLEVEL$      -- Numeric level of message in thread.

    o   Added recognition of windows-1250 and windows-1252 charsets
        into MHonArc::CharEnt and to default value of CHARSETCONVERTERS
        resource.  To apply to existing archives, use mha-dbedit
        with examples/def-mime.mrc resource file.

    o   SUBJECTREPLYRXP now used to determine if "Re: " is added
        when $SUBJECT$ is used within MAILTOURL.

    o   Code cleanup to eliminate perl -w warnings.  Cleanup not
        required for running MHonArc, but convenient for those that
        use MHonArc with perl's -w option.
