[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Creating a NULL value now clears the object address field so that it can be freely interpreted as a Object value with a null address by the JIT compiled code.
[GB.JIT]
* BUG: Correctly restore stack after calling a method through the interpreter.
* NEW: Fix panic error message.
[GB.JIT]
* BUG: Load project classes before try to resolve a unknown symbol.

[GB.JIT]
* NEW: Do many global optimizations as now the class metadata is fully available.
* NEW: Support for optional argument. Still buggy at the moment.
[BENCHMARKS]

* NEW: JIT: Support for SWAP.
* NEW: JIT: Support for array operators.
* BUG: JIT: Fix arithmetic operators.
* NEW: JIT: Implement ME and "." operator.
* NEW: JIT: Complete GOSUB / RETURN support.
* NEW: JIT: Support for DIV and MOD operators. Not optimized yet.
[ARCHIVER]
* NEW: Put JIT translation in the archive.
[GB.JIT]
* NEW: Complete datatype support. Variant is not supported yet.
* NEW: Complete GOSUB / RETURN support.
* NEW: Support for ME and '.' operator.
[CONFIGURATION]
* NEW: Add '.jit' directory to '.gitignore'.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: New '-j' option that disables just in time compilation.
* NEW: JIT: Support for private functions calls.
* NEW: JIT: Support for native arrays accessors.
* BUG: JIT: Fix loop support.
* NEW: JIT: Support for GOSUB.
[GB.JIT]
* NEW: GB_JIT_DEBUG is an environment variable that defines if JIT compilation debugging messages are printed.
* NEW: GB_JIT_CFLAGS is an environment variable that defines the JIT compilation flags. The default is "-O3".
* NEW: Support for native arrays accessors.
[COMPILER]
* BUG: JIT: Fix local variable referencing.
* NEW: JIT: Implement NEW operator and array accessors.
[INTERPRETER]

* NEW: Remove old JIT stuff.
[GB.JIT]
* NEW: Use 'gambas.h' and 'gb.jit.h' to compile translated code.
* NEW: Work on JIT continues...
* NEW: Better panic errors.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Remove the old JIT stuff.
* NEW: Calls gb.jit at runtime if needed. If a fast function has no jit implementation, the bytecode version is used.
* NEW: Start defining the JIT interface needed by the JIT functions.
* NEW: The common static character buffer is now twice the size of the maximum symbol length, to avoid possible overflows.
[GB.JIT]
* NEW: Compilation starts to work.
