-- Gettext 0.11.3
+As of this writing, the latest stable version of Gzip is 1.2.4 but we
+suggest using test version 1.3.5 (or later, if one becomes available).
+
+Valgrind <http://valgrind.org/> is also highly recommended, if
+Valgrind supports your architecture.
+
+Bison is written using Bison grammars, so there are bootstrapping
+issues.  The bootstrap script attempts to discover when the C code
+generated from the grammars is out of date, and to bootstrap with an
+out-of-date version of the C code, but the process is not foolproof.
+Also, you may run into similar problems yourself if you modify Bison.
 
 Only building the initial full source tree will be a bit painful,
 later, a plain `cvs update -P & make' should be sufficient.
