9c4779c061 Notes For V3.8
The makefile now works for Linux and most Unix's. Howevr, for Solaris
and MacOS, you must first export the OSTYPE environment variable:

> export OSTYPE
> make

Otherwise, you will get build errors.

1.1.1 SCP

- Added SET THROTTLE and SET NOTHROTTLE commands to regulate simulator
  execution rate and host resource utilization.
- Added idle support (based on work by Mark Pizzolato).
- Added -e to control error processing in nested DO commands (from
  Dave Bryan).

1.1.2 HP2100

- Added Double Integer instructions, 1000-F CPU, and Floating Point
  Processor (from Dave Bryan).
