+       * Better portability.  Now should compile cleanly with libc5, 
+           GNU libc 2.0 and 2.1, and various Linux kernels including 
+           2.0.x, 2.2.x, and to 2.4.0-test*. (patch for 2.4.x kernels
+           to make /proc/mounts behave included in the kernel-patches dir). 
        * Fixed a _horrible_ bug where 'tar -tvf' could unlink
-           local files!!!  Fix thanks to Marius Groeger <mgroeger@sysgo.de>
+           local files that matched tarball contents!!!  Fix thanks 
+           to Marius Groeger <mgroeger@sysgo.de>
        * Fixed a nasty bug in tar when could mess up saved symlinks.
+       * Fixed tar creation support when reading from stdin ('tar -cf - . ') 
+           thanks to Daniel Quinlan <quinlan@transmeta.com>
        * Updates to handle Linux 2.4.0 kernels (kludged around the
            "none" entries in /proc/mounts, added a hack to make sysinfo
            work with both old and new kernels).

            of thing.  Patch thanks to David Vrabel <dvrabel@arcom.co.uk>
        * Fix to init.c from Stuart Menefy <Stuart.Menefy@st.com> so that
            it always sets the controlling terminal before running any programs
-       * Fix to tr so it recognizes standard escape sequences.  Merged common
-           escape seq. code from tr and echo into utility.c.  Fix thanks to
-           Matt Kraai <kraai@alumni.carnegiemellon.edu>.
+       * Several fixes from Matt Kraai <kraai@alumni.carnegiemellon.edu>
+           - Fixed tr so it recognizes standard escape sequences.  
+               Merged common escape seq. code from tr and echo into utility.c.
+           - Major work in updating/cleaning up the docs, and getting the
+               new SGML based docs into shape.
+           - cleanup of ar.c
+           - BusyBox should now poweroff when asked to do so.
+           - Fixed 'ln -n' and 'ln -s' so they both work properly.
        * Reorganized signal names in kill.c for better architecture support 
            -- patch thanks to simon wood <simon@mungewell.uklinux.net>
        * In 0.43, backspace and delete worked properly, but with 0.45, 
            it just echoed a ^? for backspace, and ^H for control-h.  This
            was due to a broken macro in init.c, that is now fixed.
+       * Removed sfdisk from BusyBox.  It was buggy, fat, and we really
+           couldn't maintain it very well, so including it was not really
+           very appropriate.  Those wanting an fdisk are invited to
+           grab a copy from util-linux.
+       * Added 'dumpkmap' to allow people to dump a binary keymap, which can 
+           then be loaded in by 'loadkmap' -- submitted by
+           Arne Bernin <arne@matrix.loopback.org>
+       * Fixed NFS so it supports 2.4.x kernels and NFSv3.
+       * Brand, new versions of grep and sed which use libc regex routines,
+           thanks to Mark Whitley <markw@lineo.com>.  The hand-tooled 
+           "regexp.[ch]" files have been removed. Much help on these from 
+           Matt Kraai as well.
