changes for Apache BSF 2.4.0 (from RELEASE-NOTE.txt)

    *) can be used as an extension package to Java by placing it into
       "jre/lib/ext" [using the thread's context classloader, ie. the result
       of 'Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader()']

    *) removed experimental 'DebugLog' class, superceded by commons-logging
       and log4j

    *) removed 'org.apache.bsf.engines.activescript.*', as it is not
       supported anymore (stems from the original IBM codebase, but would
       need native Windows code to bridge OLE/ActiveX)

    *) removed 'org.apache.bsf.engines.jpython', as it is superceded by
       the newer 'org.apache.bsf.engines.jython'

    *) 'org.apache.bsf.BSFMain.java': new method
       "public String getVersion()", returns string in the form of a
       dewey decimal number 'abc' (three levels, each between 0 and 9)
       'abc.yyyymmdd', 'yyyy' four digit year, 'mm' two digit month,
       'dd' two digit day;
       e.g. '240.20060925' stands for: BSF version 2.4.0 as of 2006-09-25

    *) new class 'org.apache.bsf.utils.BSFEventProcessorReturningEventInfos'

    *) 'org.apache.bsf.utils.EngineUtils.java': added the method
       'addEventListenerReturningEventInfos(...)'
