Major new features:
+* Unicode 12.0.0 Support: Character encoding, character type info, and
+ transliteration tables are all updated to Unicode 12.0.0, using
+ generator scripts contributed by Mike FABIAN (Red Hat).
+
* The dynamic linker accepts the --preload argument to preload shared
objects, in addition to the LD_PRELOAD environment variable.
+* The twalk_r function has been added. It is similar to the existing
+ twalk function, but it passes an additional caller-supplied argument
+ to the callback function.
+
+* On Linux, the gettid function has been added.
+
+* Minguo (Republic of China) calendar support has been added as an
+ alternative calendar for the following locales: zh_TW, cmn_TW, hak_TW,
+ nan_TW, lzh_TW.
+
+* The entry for the new Japanese era has been added for ja_JP locale.
+
+* Memory allocation functions malloc, calloc, realloc, reallocarray, valloc,
+ pvalloc, memalign, and posix_memalign fail now with total object size
+ larger than PTRDIFF_MAX. This is to avoid potential undefined behavior with
+ pointer subtraction within the allocated object, where results might
+ overflow the ptrdiff_t type.
+
Deprecated and removed features, and other changes affecting compatibility:
- [Add deprecations, removals and changes affecting compatibility here]
+* The functions clock_gettime, clock_getres, clock_settime,
+ clock_getcpuclockid, clock_nanosleep were removed from the librt library
+ for new applications (on architectures which had them). Instead, the
+ definitions in libc will be used automatically, which have been available
+ since glibc 2.17.
+
+* The obsolete and never-implemented XSI STREAMS header files <stropts.h>
+ and <sys/stropts.h> have been removed.
+
+* Support for the "inet6" option in /etc/resolv.conf and the RES_USE_INET6
+ resolver flag (deprecated in glibc 2.25) have been removed.
+
+* The obsolete RES_INSECURE1 and RES_INSECURE2 option flags for the DNS stub
+ resolver have been removed from <resolv.h>.
+
+* With --enable-bind-now, installed programs are now linked with the
+ BIND_NOW flag.
Changes to build and runtime requirements:
memcmp gave the wrong result since it treated the size argument as
zero. Reported by H.J. Lu.
+ CVE-2019-9169: Attempted case-insensitive regular-expression match
+ via proceed_next_node in posix/regexec.c leads to heap-based buffer
+ over-read. Reported by Hongxu Chen.
