+ records. ``d556bde123``

+
+Feature Changes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Support compilation with cmocka 2.0.0+ ``184df12da4``
+
+ The `assert_in_range()` function was deprecated in favor of
+ `assert_int_in_range()` and `assert_uint_in_range()`. Add
+ compatibility shims for cmocka<2.0.0 and use the new functions.
+ :gl:`#5699` :gl:`!11438`
+
+Bug Fixes
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Allow glue in delegations with QTYPE=ANY. ``21ad0222b7``
+
+ When a query for type ANY triggered a delegation response, all
+ additional data was omitted from the response, including mandatory
+ glue. This has been corrected. :gl:`#5659` :gl:`!11368`
+
+- Reconfigure NSEC3 opt-out zone to NSEC causes zone to be invalid.
+ ``53cfe984e3``
+
+ A zone that is signed with NSEC3, opt-out enabled, and then
+ reconfigured to use NSEC, causes the zone to be published with missing
+ NSEC records. This has been fixed. :gl:`#5679` :gl:`!11402`
