+Changes in version 1.75a, 2002-10-24:
+
+* Bison can no longer be built by a K&R C compiler; it requires C89 or
+  later to be built.  This change originally took place a few versions
+  ago, but nobody noticed until we recently asked someone to try
+  building Bison with a K&R C compiler.
+
+* %error-verbose
+  This new directive is preferred over YYERROR_VERBOSE.
+
+* %lex-param, %parse-param
+  These new directives are preferred over PARSE_PARAM and LEX_PARAM.
+  In addition, they provide a means for yyerror to remain pure, and
+  to access to the current location.
