+- wxNotebook::GetSelection() returns the new page index when called from
+  wxEVT_COMMAND_NOTEBOOK_PAGE_CHANGED event handler in wxMSW, not the old one.
+  The new behaviour is consistent with wxGTK and more logical but different
+  from the previous versions. Using wxNotebookEvent::GetSelection() instead of
+  querying the notebook selection avoids the problem and is recommended.
+
+- wxMSW-specific wxAutomationObject::GetInstance() method now creates a new
+  instance if needed instead of failing if the application providing the
+  requested ProgID is not running. Pass wxAutomationInstance_UseExistingOnly
+  flag to it to revert to the old behaviour.
