Yeah, update 0.6 as well.

This is only there since I'm writing a SRFI about multi-line comments and
wanted to implement it by myself. Let's discuss about taking this into
scsh after the SRFI if final. I'll revert to the old reader in the CVS
tomorrow.

Hey stop! I thought we agreed that 0.5.3 should mainly contain bug
fixes and we focus on 0.6 after that.
Put 0.5.3 out NOW. After that we fix the API for 0.6. I'll implement
it and you can proceed with the above list in the 0.6 tree.
Maintaining both trees is unnecessary work.
