    - The parallel testsuite is no longer reported as "experimental"; it
      is well tested, ans should be stable now.
  
+   - The 'shar' and 'tarZ' distribution formats and the 'dist-shar' and
+     'dist-tarZ' options are obsolescent, and their use is deprecated
+     in the documentation.
+ 
+   - Other minor miscellaneous fixes and improvements; in particular,
+     some improvements in cross-references.
+ 
 +* Obsolescent features:
 +
 +  - Use of suffix-less info files (that can be specified through the
 +    '@setfilename' macro in Texinfo input files) is discouraged, and
 +    its use will raise warnings in the 'obsolete' category.  Simply
 +    use the '.info' extension for all your info files, transforming
 +    usages like:
 +
 +        @setfilename myprogram
 +
 +    into:
 +
 +        @setfilename myprogram.info
 +
 +  - Use of Texinfo input files with '.txi' or '.texinfo' extensions
 +    is discouraged, and its use will raise warnings in the 'obsolete'
 +    category.  You are advised to simply use the '.texi' extension
 +    instead.

  * Bugs fixed:
  
    - The obsolete macros AM_CONFIG_HEADER or AM_PROG_CC_STDC work once
