Nice! > Attached patch documents it in the release notes. > I loved to hear comments, suggestions, improvements (or even appraisals). Looks good to me. (Personally I would have written "the math and Fortran runtime libraries", which is shorter, but pretty much a matter of preference. IOW, keep it as is unless you like it better, too. :-) One idea might be to show the two invocations - before and after - in the release notes as well, at the end of that new entry. Totally up to you, too. For the benefit of the doubt: Okay, thank you! Gerald
