+- Improvements to testsuite:
+ - Check for correct handling of softdep loops
+ - Check for correct handling of install command loops
+
+- Bug fixes:
+ - Fix build with compilers that don't support --gc-sections
+ - Handle errors when dealing with gzipp'ed modules
+ - depmod now handles errors while writing indexes, so it doesn't end up
+ with corrupted index without telling the user
