What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]

· The -fconserve-space flag has been deprecated. The flag had no effect for most targets: only targets without a global .bss section and without support for switchable sections. Furthermore, the flag only had an effect for G++, where it could result in wrong semantics (please refer to the GCC manual for further details). The flag will be removed in GCC 4.8.
· Support on ARM for the legacy floating-point accelerator (FPA) and the mixed-endian floating-point format that it used has been obsoleted. The ports that still use this format have been obsoleted as well. Many legacy ARM ports already provide an alternative that uses the VFP floating-point format. The obsolete ports will be deleted in the next release.
