* DEVICES: Updated (again) changing BSIM4 level from 60 to 14 since
older model revisions are not yet in ngspice. This is consistent
with model developers: newer models are compatible with older ones.
* src/spicelib/devices/bsim4/: updated to revision 4.4.0 with "m"
parallel multiplier enhancements. Thanks to Mick Tooher
<micktooher@yahoo.com> and Dietmar Warning <warning@danalyse.de> for
this update.
* tests/bsim4/: updated test files for bsim4 4.4.0. The old files have
been replaced with new ones coming from BSIM4 site. There are new
tests: (*_gedl*) and ro_17.cir.

* DEVICES: Dietmar Warning (warning@danalyse.de) provided me an
updated and corrected version of this file.
