Gideon snapshot

[Caleb Tennis]

The "snapshot" release that I've put on the kde ftp site is intended to be 
"alpha5".  I just didn't name it "alpha5" because I thought we were starting 
to get too many "alphas". :)

Unfortunately, I think it has a few bad bugs in it and will probably need to 
be replaced with a different snapshot, or "alpha5a" if you will.

If someone wants to handle bumping the version numbering in the source code to 
"alpha5", "a5" or something like that I'd be most greatful - my cvs on my 
development computer is completely messed up at the moment.  I'll then get 
the replacement "snapshot" set up in the next day or two.

Thanks,
Caleb
