+
+bug fixes:
+- major fenv (floating point environment) fixes and optimizations

+
+
+
+0.8.8 release notes
+
+new feature:
+- major math correctness and performance improvements
+- many math functions implemented in asm for i386
+- some math functions (mostly long double) in asm for x86_64
+- new floating point parser/converter with correct rounding
+- implement wcstod, wcstof, and wcstold
+- new scanf implementation - cleaner, faster, more correct

+critical security fixes:
+- stack-based buffer overflow in fprintf on unbuffered files
+
+other bug fixes:
+- rare gcc register allocation (miscompilation) bug in syscall wrappers
+- printf was rejecting the valid (but redundant) %lf format specifier
+- fixed big data bloat (missing const) in math functions
+- many math fixes related to floating point exceptions and rounding
+- corrected DECIMAL_DIG definitions
