Hash: SHA1

Now that post-2.61a patches have been committed, we need to bump the
version.  Checking this in (plus regenerating files) as obvious:

2006-12-16  Eric Blake  <address@hidden>

        * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Bump version, since 2.61a is released.
        * NEWS: Start news for current version.
