Would it be easier to implement <package>_v000r000p000 ? As it seems Riccardo has already updated MRStudio HEAD to handle any alphanumeric combination.

Allow CMT and SCons to be used side-by-side for some period of time (~6months)

1. Ability to run a program in debugger.
With just a button push MRvcmt will bring up gdb inside an emacs session. Source is visible and all necessary context is preserved. This is an essential function!unmigrated-wiki-markup
2. Tagging. The last time I tried it, I was able to make the tag but MRStudio did not give me a chance to edit release.notes nor did it update the version in the CMT requirements file \ [The second one may not
be necessary in the SCons-based system.\]
3. Ability to spawn terminal window in the context of a package.
Actually, since the SCons system will be much better about managing context
than CMT, maybe there isn't much to do here.
Then this one, less important but annoying and probably easy to fix:

Johann reported a problem with FRED a few weeks ago. Riccardo thought this was fixed some time ago with Navid's help. Perhaps we know more today? Here is Johann's original email:
I logged on rhel4-32.slac.stanford.edu, following Navid's advice, in order to test the behavior of FRED on such a system. Launching Gleam fails to open FRED, with the following error :

I have the exact same error on my FC7 box, and it seems to be known on the web.... I tried to rebuild FOX and FXRuby 1.2.X but the only available packages I found are FOX 1.2.18 and FXRuby 1.2.6, and theydont seem to be compatible, as compilation failed.
Then I tried to build recent versions of both packages, but then it is FRED itself which seems to have a problem : I can launch the guistandalone, but as soon as I try to read an ior file, I get ############################################################ FRED version v0r100 "Calvin"## Mon Jun 19 09:44:22 W.
