   documentation for details and revise your code accordingly: this change was

+- small change to wxStopWatch::Pause() semantics, please see the documentation

+- unlikely but possible incompatibility: the definition of TRUE has changed
+  from "1" to "(bool)1" (and the same thing for FALSE), so the code which
+  could be erroneously compiled previously such as doing "return FALSE" from
+  a function returning a pointer would stop compiling now (but this change
+  is not supposed to have any effects on valid code)
