2000-10-31   Gisle Aas <gisle@ActiveState.com>

    Release 1.01

    GIF parsing fixes from Ralf Steines <metamonk@yahoo.com>:

      - GIF 'DisposalMethod' and 'UserInput' now show proper values.

      - GIF 'TransparencyIndex' now appears in the info hash.

      - GIF anims with local color tables don't fail anymore
        (table size calculation bug).

      - Added: GIFs marked as 87a which contain graphics control
        extension blocks don't fail anymore, GIF is parsed anyway
        but $info->{warn} contains 'GIF 89a extensions in 87a'.
