My current plan is to tag every current E source file which doesn't do a

     pragma.enable("easy-return")

with a

     pragma.syntax("0.8")

to record that it depends on the pre-easy-return version of the language, and 
to make a final release of an E 0.8.*. The next release will be an E 0.9.*, 
will provide settings for

     pragma.syntax("0.9")

including turning on easy-return by default, and will tag each E source file 
with one of the above two tags.

My apologies to all those who have E sources outside the E source tree. As of 
E 0.9.*, you will need to upgrade these yourselves.
