+* IMPORTANT: Several interface changes make programs written with GiNaC 
+  much clearer but break compatibility with older versions:
+  - f(x).series(x,p[,o]) -> f(x).series(x==p,o)
+  - series(f(x),x,p[,o]) -> series(f(x),x==p,o)
+  - gamma() -> Gamma()
+  - EulerGamma -> gamma
+  - beta() -> Beta()
+* #include'ing ginac.h defines the preprocessor symbols GINACLIB_MAJOR_VERSION,
+  GINACLIB_MINOR_VERSION, and GINACLIB_MICRO_VERSION with the respective GiNaC
+  library version numbers.
