Log Message:
Update to 1.14:

* What is new in gsl-1.14:

** Upgraded to latest libtool, autoconf and automake (libtool-2.2.6b,
   autoconf-2.65, automake-1.11.1).  Fixes security hole in 'make
   dist' (see Automake CVE-2009-4029).

** Added support for "multisets", which are similar to permutations
   and combinations.  A multiset is an array of k integers in the
   range 0 to n-1 where each value may occur more than once. Multisets
   can be used to iterate over the indices of a k-th order symmetric
   tensor in n-space. (Rhys Ulerich)

** Added gsl_integrate_glfixed routines for performing fixed order
   Gauss-Legendre integration
   (Pavel Holoborodko, Konstantin Holoborodko, Rhys Ulerich)

** In the LMDER multi-dimensional fitting routines, the return code
   GSL_ENOPROG is now used instead of GSL_CONTINUE for the case where
   10 or more attempts to find a suitable trial step have been made
   without success. [bug #25383]

** The confluent hypergeometric function gsl_sf_hyperg_U (a,b,x) has
   been extended to support x < 0 for cases not involving
   singularities in 1F1(a,b,x). [bug #27859]

** The F-distribution gsl_ran_fdist_pdf now avoids unnecessary
   underflow and overflow and handles cases where n > 248. [bug
   #28500]

** The SVD routines now use a scaled version of the implicit QR method
   and compute the shift more reliably for values at the limit of
   double precision, avoiding potential NaNs. [bug #28767]

** A compile time error is emitted if the configuration stage prevents
   the functions gsl_isnan and gsl_finite from being defined.

** Added missing dereference in GSL_VECTOR_COMPLEX when not using
   GSL_RANGE_CHECK [bug #28017]

** Improved the range of gsl_sf_hyperg1F1(a,b,x) when a<0,b>0. [bug
   #28718]

** Added macros GSL_MAJOR_VERSION and GSL_MINOR_VERSION in
   <gsl/gsl_version.h>

** Improved gsl_eigen_symmv and gsl_eigen_symm to avoid a potential
   infinite loop when the tridiagonalised matrix contains very small
   values. [bug #28096]

** Added functions gsl_multifit_linear_usvd and
   gsl_multifit_wlinear_usvd for multilinear fitting without
   column-scaling of the fit matrix.
