+Better string handling.  NSString is now fleshed out, and I've
+implemented a scheme by which the GNU String object and OpenStep's
+NSString can coexist nicely.  The OpenStep classes declare their string
+arguments with (NSString*) just like the standard says, but the
+preferred (more flexible) way to declare string arguments is (id
+<String>); and these two types are set up so that they coexist.  There
+is still more to be done.  NSString has several unimplemented methods;
+GNU String needs some more work.

+Newly implemented classes: MallocAddress, NSString, NSMutableString,
