 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 
+20060526:
+	the kernel links script for i386 and xen was changed to set the
+	load address correctly, for the benefit of MULTIBOOT boot loaders
+	(like Grub). If you use a linker (ld) older than from 2006/04/17, it
+	will be unable to link the kernel because of a bug, and you will
+	have to update at least src/gnu/dist/binutils/ld and recompile the
+	linker. If using the build.sh script, the easiest way is with a
+	"build.sh tools" command, with any other options that you use
+	normally. When using build.sh, the linker binary is installed as
+	${TOOLDIR}/bin/i386--netbsdelf-ld.
+20060131:
+	the protocol between the sparc64 bootloader (ofwboot) and
+	the kernel was changed. Before installing a new kernel,
+	you need to update ofwboot. After a full build, just copy
+	/usr/mdec/ofwboot to /, or do a rebuild of
+	src/sys/arch/sparc/stand/ofwboot and install the result to /.
+
+20050917:
+	arch/*/conf/std.* was changed to include conf/std, which
+	contains MI options previously enabled by default.
+	If you have kernel config files which doesn't include
+	arch/*/conf/std.*, you need to edit them to include conf/std
+	to get the previous configuration.
+
+20050830:
+	named.conf was moved from /etc/namedb to /etc.
+	postinstall(8) migrates this during interactive use.
+	Users of MKUPDATE=yes will need to manually rectify
+	this in their DESTDIR.
+
+20050825:
+	Some data structures in sys/device.h, related to interface
+	attributes and locator names, were changed. config(1) was
+	modified to emit the new data structures.
+	Thus usr.bin/config must be updated (and run on the kernel
+	configuration file) before a new kernel can be built.
+
 20050531:
 	genassym.sh(8) was moved to genassym(1). You need to either build
 	tools first or install the version of genassym from /usr/bin before
