+* [Bug 2792] If the IFF_RUNNING interface flag is supported then an
+  interface is ignored as long as this flag is not set since the
+  interface is not usable (e.g., no link).
+* [Bug 2794] Clean up kernel clock status reports.
+* [Bug 2800] refclock_true.c true_debug() can't open debug log because
+  of incompatible open/fdopen parameters.

+* [Bug 2806] refclock_jjy.c supports the Telephone JJY.
+* [Bug 2808] GPSD_JSON driver enhancements, step 1.
+  Fix crash during cleanup if GPS device not present and char device.
+  Increase internal token buffer to parse all JSON data, even SKY.
+  Defer logging of errors during driver init until the first unit is
+  started, so the syslog is not cluttered when the driver is not used.
+  Various improvements, see http://bugs.ntp.org/2808 for details.
+  Changed libjsmn to a more recent version.
+* [Bug 2810] refclock_shm.c memory barrier code needs tweaks for QNX.
+* [Bug 2813] HP-UX needs -D__STDC_VERSION__=199901L and limits.h.
+* [Bug 2815] net-snmp before v5.4 has circular library dependencies.
