+
+* Changes in version 2.4.1 (2008-12-11):
+
+** In the GLR defines file, unexpanded M4 macros in the yylval and yylloc
+   declarations have been fixed.
+
+** Temporary hack for adding a semicolon to the user action.
+
+  Bison used to prepend a trailing semicolon at the end of the user
+  action for reductions.  This allowed actions such as
+
+    exp: exp "+" exp { $$ = $1 + $3 };
+
+  instead of
+
+    exp: exp "+" exp { $$ = $1 + $3; };
+
+  Some grammars still depend on this `feature'.  Bison 2.4.1 restores
+  the previous behavior in the case of C output (specifically, when
+  neither %language or %skeleton or equivalent command-line options
+  are used) to leave more time for grammars depending on the old
+  behavior to be adjusted.  Future releases of Bison will disable this
+  feature.
+
+** A few minor improvements to the Bison manual.
+
+* Changes in version 2.4 (2008-11-02):
+
+** %language is an experimental feature.
+
+  We first introduced this feature in test release 2.3b as a cleaner
+  alternative to %skeleton.  Since then, we have discussed the possibility of
+  modifying its effect on Bison's output file names.  Thus, in this release,
+  we consider %language to be an experimental feature that will likely evolve
+  in future releases.
+
+** Forward compatibility with GNU M4 has been improved.
+
+** Several bugs in the C++ skeleton and the experimental Java skeleton have been
+  fixed.
+
+* Changes in version 2.3b (2008-05-27):
+
+** The quotes around NAME that used to be required in the following directive

   are now deprecated:
 
     %define NAME "VALUE"
