+- Issue #5201: distutils.sysconfig.parse_makefile() now understands `$$`
+  in Makefiles. This prevents compile errors when using syntax like:
+  `LDFLAGS='-rpath=\$$LIB:/some/other/path'`. Patch by Floris Bruynooghe.

 - Issue #5767: Removed sgmlop support from xmlrpclib.
 
 - Issue #6131: test_modulefinder leaked when run after test_distutils.
