1d4fa8b327 Available back ability to use eip register as source in 'set reg = <expr>' cmd.
Setting the eip register still not available (deliberatelly).

Remove unused test registres from debugger

05f350c61b - build bochsdoc.tar.gz in a separate make target. upload the whole tar.gz

  This will be used to grab the rendered documentation for platforms that
  do not have docbook tools.  (Most don't.)

  overwrite the main README.

- move DOC-linux.html into the docbook in a section called "Quick Start for
  Linux Users", and removed all references to the DOC-linux file that I could
  find.  Most of the text has been moved into the Linux RPM section.  Parts
  that did not fit into the docbook are now in doc/docbook/misc.txt.
- put vga.pcf into INSTALL_LIST_X11 so that it's only installed when
  you configure with --with-x11.
- transfer section on VGA font installation from docs-html into user guide
- remove RCS id from screen shots within user guide, since they are changed
  to the revision info of user.dbk.
