This release fixes regressions to the browser REPL that resulted from the foreign dependencies enhancement.

This release also includes two very big enhancements. The first is around macros. If your library does the following:

(ns foo.bar
   (:require-macros foo.bar))

Then users that require your library:

(ns bar.baz
  (:require [foo.bar :as foo]))

Will get foo.bar macros automatically required and aliased to foo.

The other big enhancement is true incremental compilation support. While we have had incremental compilation for some time it has suffered from the fact that we did not recompile dependent namespaces - this meant no compilation warnings and corrupted builds.

With auto recompilation of dependent namespaces we eliminate many cases that previously would have required a clean.

Feedback welcome!
