   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.
 
+* The `crypt' function now fails if passed salt bytes that violate the
+  specification for those values.  On Linux, the `crypt' function will
+  consult /proc/sys/crypto/fips_enabled to determine if "FIPS mode" is
+  enabled, and fail on encrypted strings using the MD5 or DES algorithm
+  when the mode is enabled.
+
+* The `clock_*' suite of functions (declared in <time.h>) is now available
+  directly in the main C library.  Previously it was necessary to link with
+  -lrt to use these functions.  This change has the effect that a
+  single-threaded program that uses a function such as `clock_gettime' (and
+  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,
+  sat_IN, and szl_PL.
