Update of SAL

Update of SAL

[LeakyStain]

I've posted a new version of SAL to my website:

http://users.erols.com/leakstan/Stephe/Ada/sal.html 

There are a couple new packages, and the sorted tree now supports three
options for duplicate keys; error, allow, ignore.

Have fun!

Got a quick URL to 'Endianness'? I'm sure I could regenerate
it to get the SAL to compile but if you have a quick link
that would obviously save some effort.

TIA

Hmm. There seems to be a problem with my quality control!

I apparently added sal-gen-word_order_convert without adding a test
for it, so I never actually compiled it, so I didn't notice I left out
Endianness. Sigh.

Below is the version for GNAT on x86; this package is compiler and CPU
specific. Obviously, I should rename it to SAL.Endianness or
something.

Let me know if this doesn't work.
