XXICC (21st Century Co-design) release 0.1

Here is the new release 0.1 of XXICC.  I was very busy with work and family obligations over the last few years so I wasn't able to keep up with XXICC as I would have liked.  0.1 is a major release since it adds n-bit integers (1-32 bits) to GalaxC and GCHD.  These changes touched a lot of code and documentation.  I've tested what I could, but with this many changes there are bound to be some undetected bugs.  Please report any you find in the comments below, especially if they're reproducible.

XXICC (21st Century Co-design) is a not-for-profit research project which attempts to bring digital hardware/software co-design into the 21st Century using an improved programming language and a Reduced Software Complexity philosophy.  Its goal is to make it easier and more enjoyable to write and maintain digital hardware and software. XXICC is pronounced "Chicken Coop", so-called because it has so many layers.

For an overview of XXICC, see XXICC: 21st Century Co-design.  For details on the GalaxC programming language, XXICC Object Editor, and GalaxC extensions for Hardware Design (GCHD), here are the latest documents and source code:

I've tested XXICC 0.1 on GNU/Linux (Ubuntu/Lubuntu on x86 PCs and Raspberry Pi Raspbian).  I haven't tested it on ODROID-C1 Ubuntu or BeagleBone Debian, but it should work.  I've tested it on Windows 2000 and 7.  My main machine is Ubuntu, so the others are more likely to have anomalies.  Constructive comments and suggestions are most welcome.  I'd especially like to find out how to reproduce some of the bugs that have been eluding me.
