* The `btowc' function should work at least twice as fast due to
specialized callbacks in the iconv modules. Implemented by Bruno Haible.
+
+* With approriate thread add-ons cancelable functions are now implemented
+ in libc.so as well. No need to call the function in libpthread. This
+ change allowed to finally disable the incorrect and expensive handling
+ of weak definition in ld.so.
+
+* Yet more PLT entries in libc.so have been removed. We finally arrived
+ at the bare minimum. Startup times improved appropriately.
+
+* Support for the new Linux/x86 system call interface was added. The
+ AT_SYSINFO auxiliary vector entry is recognized and handled.
