+0.9.14 release notes
+
+bugs fixed:
+- failure to properly install dynamic linker with DESTDIR set (symlink wrong)
+- rare deadlock in libc-internal locking routines
+- dynamic linker used fallback paths wrongly on (possibly transient) errors
+- popen broken when stdin or stdout was already closed in parent
+- deadlock/memory-corruption in multithreaded set*id and setrlimit functions
+- realpath failed when file was not readable
+- readpath mistakenly had cancellation points in it
+- crashes in scanf with invalid %m conversion specifiers
+- misclassificiation of some invalid ld80 float representation in fpclassify
+- various overflow and underflow flag issues in math functions
+- domain handling errors for acoshf and acoshl
+- wrong values for some sysconf properties
+- lack of proper memory barriers on arm
+
+mips-specific bugs:
+- broken sysv ipc structures
+- multiple stack-related bugs in clone, leading to crashes in parent or child
+- overflow writing sigset_t in multithreaded set*id and setrlimit functions
+
+other improvements:
+- size and performance improvements to various math functions
+- wait.h as a compatibility alias for sys/wait.h
+- various header improvements
+- support for runtime-variable page size on archs that need it (mainly mips)
+
+
+
+0.9.15 release notes
+
+new features:

+
+bugs fixed:
+- buffer overflow in mbsrtowcs
+- clobbering of gr_name in getgrnam_r and getgrgid_r
+- execle ignoring the environment argument
+- setenv crash on malloc failure
+- out-of-bounds access in fnmatch with FNM_PATHNAME and certain patterns
+- failure of malloc to set errno when failing to extend heap
+- incorrect errno value from getcwd with zero size
+- spurious failure in faccessat with AT_EACCESS flag with suid/sgid programs
+- several fd leaks due to missing close-on-exec flag
+- misspellings/typos in macro names in several headers
+- incorrect failure return value in inet_pton
+- various numeric ip address parsing and validation fixes
+- namespace conformance issues in several headers
+- minor header issues
+- zombie processes left by faccessat with AT_EACCESS
+- timezone file parser failing/crashing on 64-bit archs
+- hang in localtime with near-overflowing time_t values on 64-bit archs
+- timezone path search was only trying first path
+- incorrect handling of excessive-length TZ environment strings
+- timezone file loading was wrongly enforcing O_NOFOLLOW/rejecting symlinks
+- iswspace was wrongly returning true for the null character
+- various bugs in wordexp
+- putgrent could write corrupt lines after write failures
+- dn_expand misinterpreted in-packet offsets greater than 255
+- spurious strftime/wcsftime failure on len+1==bufsize case
+- incorrect underflow flag in fma corner cases
+- log*(0) wrongly returned +inf in downward-rounding mode
+- failure of fchmod, fstat, fchdir, and fchown to produce EBADF
+
+arch-specific bugs fixed:
+- i386: failure of fesetround to set sse rounding mode
+- i386: floating point limit constants misinterpreted due to excess precision
+- powerpc: broken thread pointer access when compiled with clang
+- microblaze: dynamic linker entry point code possibly clobbering argv
+
+strict conformance issues:
+- NULL definition re-aligned with POSIX (requires (void *) cast)
+- alignment of math.h is* comparison functions with C11 annex F requirements
