+ EMFILE has been fixed (Bugzilla #14889).
+
+* The add-on ports collection is now distributed in the "ports" subdirectory
+ of the main GNU C Library distribution, rather than separately.
+
+* Port to ARM AArch64 contributed by Linaro.
* Support for STT_GNU_IFUNC symbols added for s390 and s390x.
Optimized versions of memcpy, memset, and memcmp added for System z10 and
New configure option --disable-build-nscd avoids building nscd itself;
this is the default if --disable-nscd is used.
+* Improved support for cross-compilation, including cross-testing and
+ bootstrap builds without a previously built glibc.
+
+* Several testsuite tests are now able to test multiple IFUNC variants of an
+ interface, rather than just testing the one that would be chooen by
+ default.
+
+* New configure options --with-bugurl and --with-pkgversion, for
+ distributors to use to embed their bug-reporting and package version
+ information in --help and --version output.
+
* The ttyname and ttyname_r functions on Linux now fall back to searching for
the tty file descriptor in /dev/pts or /dev if /proc is not available. This
allows creation of chroots without the procfs mounted on /proc.
is not linked with -lrt) will no longer implicitly load the pthreads
library at runtime and so will not suffer the overheads associated with
multi-thread support in other code such as the C++ runtime library.

+* New locales: ayc_PE, doi_IN, ia_FR, mni_IN, nhn_MX, niu_NU, niu_NZ,
