 * Noteworthy changes in release ?.? (????-??-??) [?]
 
+  We consider compiler warnings about Bison generated parsers to be bugs.
+  Rather than working around them in your own project, please consider
+  reporting them to us.
+
+** Bug fixes
+
+  Warnings about uninitialized yylval and/or yylloc for push parsers with a
+  pure interface have been fixed for GCC 4.0 up to 4.8, and Clang 2.9 to
+  3.2.
+
+  Other issues in the test suite have been addressed.
+
+  Nul characters are correctly displayed in error messages.
+
+* Noteworthy changes in release 2.6.4 (2012-10-23) [stable]
+
+  Bison 2.6.3's --version was incorrect.  This release fixes this issue.

+** Fix compiler warnings in the generated parser (yacc.c, glr.c)
+
+  The compilation of pure parsers (%define api.pure) can trigger GCC
+  warnings such as:
+
+    input.c: In function 'yyparse':
+    input.c:1503:12: warning: 'yylval' may be used uninitialized in this
+                              function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
+       *++yyvsp = yylval;
+                ^
+
+  This is now fixed; pragmas to avoid these warnings are no longer needed.
+
+  Warnings from clang ("equality comparison with extraneous parentheses" and
+  "function declared 'noreturn' should not return") have also been
+  addressed.
