* utils/hbmk2/hbmk2.prg
    + changed the way script debugging is invoked, now
      instead of little awkward HBSHELL_DEBUG envvar,
      it's as simple as adding '--hb:debug' option to the
      cmdline.
    ! fixed RTE after recent patch

  * README.md
    + typographic refinements
    + added script debugging example
    + added link to BOM article

  * .gitignore
    ! fixed to not match config/<platform>

  + config/qnx/gccarm.mk
    + added qnx/gccarm (with BB in mind)

  * package/winuni/RELNOTES.txt
    ! updated README section reference

  * COPYING.txt
    * minor

  * tests/hello.prg
