+Changes in version 1.75e, 2002-12-24:
+
+* If the user does not define YYSTYPE as a macro, Bison now declares it
+  using typedef instead of defining it as a macro.  POSIX requires this.
+  For consistency, YYLTYPE is also declared instead of defined.
+
+* %union directives can now have a tag before the `{', e.g., the
+  directive `%union foo {...}' now generates the C code
+  `typedef union foo { ... } YYSTYPE;'; this is for Yacc compatibility.
+  The default union tag is `YYSTYPE', for compatibility with Solaris 9 Yacc.
+  For consistency, YYLTYPE's struct tag is now `YYLTYPE' instead of `yyltype'.
+
+* `yystype' and `yyltype' are now obsolescent macros instead of being
+  typedefs or tags; they are no longer documented and will be
+  withdrawn in a future release.
+
+* References to the experimental %lex-param and %parse-param directives
+  have been temporarily removed from the manual, since we don't want
+  users to rely upon these features quite yet.
+
+Changes in version 1.75d, 2002-12-13:
 
 * Semicolons are once again optional at the end of grammar rules.
