      	This working version is believed to be stable, but
    	we have not run our full regression-test suite.

Summary:
  A number of small, but important bug fixes.

### Details:

- Fixed a bug in `MatchTree.nth` (regexp library).
- Fixed a long-standing memory leak in the GC where a program with fixed-sized live data could suffer from unbounded VM growth (bugs 1119 and 1131). Note that we thought that this bug was fixed in 110.40, but we were wrong.
- Fixed inlined versions of `Real.min` and `Real.max`.
- Resurrected `SMLofNJ.Internals.BTrace.mode`, which had gone missing.
- Added missing implementation of `IEEEReal.fromString`.
- Added missing implementations of `OS.Path.`{`from`,`to`}`UnixPath`.
- Exported structure `BTImp` from `$smlnj/viscomp/debugprof.cm` so that other clients can set up backtracing support.
