instead of `RESsetup()'
to be effective when altering a resistor model parameter or when
sweeping a resistor model parameter in a dc analysis.

notably on debian gnu/linux with package `mingw-w64'
cross-compile a mingw 32bit windows executable with this incantation:
(compile "
./autogen.sh
rm -rf tmp-build tmp-output
mkdir -p tmp-build tmp-output
( cd tmp-build && ../configure \
--build=$(../config.guess) \
--host=i686-w64-mingw32 \
--prefix='c:/spice' \
--exec-prefix='c:/spice'\
--with-windows --enable-xspice --enable-cider --disable-debug )
LC_ALL=C make -C tmp-build -k -j6
LC_ALL=C make -C tmp-build -k -j6 DESTDIR=$(pwd)/tmp-output/ install
(cd 'tmp-output/c:/' && zip -r - .) > tmp-output.zip
")
compilation to Win64 works the same way, with
--host=x86_64-w64-mingw32
The tmp-output.zip directory structure resembles the
structure of our original sourceforge ngspice-26_140112.zip windows package
ready to be unzip'ed in c:/
Though the testfiles, examples and documentation is missing.
explicitly use
configure --disable-maintainer-mode
only if you don't have bison and flex.
we still have the bison/flex generated output files in the repository,
causing quite complex make dependencies.
Contrary to older versions gnuplot 5 uses "enhanced text mode" per default.
The strings which we pass to gnuplot don't have "latex" semantics,
thus consistently enforce "noenhanced text mode".
Add a function quote_gnuplot_string() to escape and quote strings
in such a way that they will arrive in gnuplot unmodified.

Using conditional expressions within a .control sequence
left some garbage vectors in the current plot.
For example

"display" reported a variable named "ix < 2"
which was an internal temporary value in said function `cp_istrue()'
let 2foo = someexpression
was silently accepted, even though 2foo is an illegal identifier.
(first letter is a digit)
This was especially irritating, since
print 2foo
has a legal meaning, 2 femto oO, which is 2e-15
(whatever Unit an oO might be)
Reported by Justin Fisher in

a diode model named "1smb4148" could not be found
because it was dropped in `comment_out_unused_subckt_models()'
as a work around the function
is_a_modelname()
is extended to accept an additional pattern which does match "1smb4148"
