This is mostly a bug-fix release. A number of malloc() leakages were found & fixed. There was also a parsing error in the handling of SVD files, which caused a crash if a particular construct present (this was fixed too).

The Flash programmer utility (BMFlash) now supports Intel HEX and flat BIN files as wel as ELF files. Its handling of code-read protection was overhauled, and now allows for more flexibility. Currently, the code-read protection is supported for STM32 and LPC microcontroller families.

The book has been adjusted to include the information on CRP, and HEX & BIN files.
