 * ==================== CORE CHANGES ===================
 
-* The new option --keep-debuginfo=no|yes (default no) can be used to
-  keep symbols etc for unloaded code. This allows saved stack traces
-  (e.g. memory leaks) to include file/line info for code that has been
-  dlclose'd (or similar). See user manual for more information and
-  known limitations.

 * Ability to specify suppressions based on source file name and line number.
-* Majorly overhauled register allocator (add details)
+
+* Majorly overhauled register allocator.  No end-user changes, but the JIT
+  generates code a bit more quickly now.
 
 * ================== PLATFORM CHANGES =================
 
 * Preliminary support for macOS 10.13 has been added.
+
 * mips: support for MIPS32/MIPS64 Revision 6 has been added.
+
 * mips: support for MIPS SIMD architecture (MSA) has been added.
+
 * mips: support for MIPS N32 ABI support has been added.
 
 * ==================== TOOL CHANGES ====================
 
-* Helgrind:
+* Helgrind: Addition of a flag
+  --delta-stacktrace=no|yes [yes on linux amd64/x86]
+  which specifies how full history stack traces should be computed.
+  Setting this to =yes can speed up Helgrind by 25% when using
+  --history-level=full.
 
-  - Addition of a flag --delta-stacktrace=no|yes [yes on linux amd64/x86],
-    specifying how full history stack traces are computed. Using yes can speed
-    up Helgrind by 25% when using --history-level=full.
+* Memcheck: reduced false positive rate for optimised code created by Clang 6
+  / LLVM 6 on x86, amd64 and arm64.  In particular, Memcheck analyses code
+  blocks more carefully to determine where it can avoid expensive definedness
+  checks without loss of precision.  This is controlled by the flag
+  --expensive-definedness-checks=no|auto|yes [auto].
 
 * ==================== OTHER CHANGES ====================
 
-* A new configure option --enable-lto=yes allows to build Valgrind
-  with link time optimisation. If the toolchain supports it,
-  this produces a smaller/faster Valgrind (up to 10%).
-  Note that if you are doing some Valgrind development, --enable-lto=yes
-  significantly slows down the build.
+* Valgrind is now buildable with link-time optimisation (LTO).  A new
+  configure option --enable-lto=yes allows building Valgrind with LTO.  If the
+  toolchain supports it, this produces a smaller/faster Valgrind (up to 10%).
+  Note that if you are doing Valgrind development, --enable-lto=yes massively
+  slows down the build process.
