[m-dev.] Fw: [Patch] Implemented op/3 declaration for Mercury compiler (0.12.1)

[doug.auclair at logicaltypes.com]

Dear Mercury Developers,

Hello.  I sent the original some time ago (which was silently dropped).  I've enclosed the diffs of the files in order to implement the op/3 declaration for the Mercury compiler (version 0.12.1 ... I'm currently compiling 0.12.2 with those changes, too, as the files affected did not change from 0.12.1 to 0.12.2).  Ran the test suite before changing the system and after.  Results were the same before and after.

I find op/3 an essential part of developing systems (having built production systems in Prolog).  I also have seen more than one aborted attempt to add op/3 to the compiler over the years (leaving unused artifacts in the compiler sources).  Given that, would you kindly consider the attached changes, implementing the op/3 declaration, to be rolled into the source base and put into the release schedule?  As I am developing a production system, it would be helpful for me for this feature to become part of the language proper.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,
Doug Auclair
