  functions and what are those available.

* [fix] Updated axl_list_new to better explain that are_equal handler
  must be provided.

* [fix] Fix axl_node_get_content_trim to flag its result with const
  char * (instead of just char *).

  parameter to it works also with arguments containing operators. Bug
  reported and fixed by Étienne Dupuis.

  beginning of the file.

* [fix] Updated README.win32 to include instructions about 64bits..

  /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/axl when python-axl is installed in
  an squeeze machine as a consequence of an upgrade.
