* The port to Native Client running on ARMv7-A (--host=arm-nacl) has been
removed.
+* <string.h> no longer includes inline versions of any string functions,
+ as this kind of optimization is better done by the compiler. The macros
+ __USE_STRING_INLINES and __NO_STRING_INLINES no longer have any effect.
+
* The reallocarray function has been added to libc. It is a realloc
replacement with a check for integer overflow when calculating total
allocation size.
