-Version 0.12
-
-* regex.c does not #define bcmp/bcopy/bzero if they already are.
-
-* regex.h does not redefine `const' if it is already defined, even if
-  __STDC__ is not defined.
-
-* RE_SYNTAX_ED added (same as POSIX BRE's).
-
-* The following bugs have been fixed, among others:
-  * The pattern \w+ doesn't infinite loop.
-  * The pattern ".+\n" is compiled correctly.
-  * Expressions with more than MAX_REGNUM groups are compiled correctly.
-
-* Patterns that end in a repetition operator (e.g., `*') match
-  slightly faster if no looping is actually necessary.
-
-Version 0.11 (17 Sep 92)
-
-* Back-references to nonexistent subexpressions, as in the r.e. `abc\1',
-  are always invalid.  Previously, they could match the literal digit,
-  e.g., the stated r.e. might have matched `abc1'.
-
-* Empty subexpressions are always valid (POSIX leaves this undefined).
-
-* Simplified rules for ^ and $ being anchors.
-
-* One minor speedup (rewriting the C procedure `pop_failure_point' as a
-  macro again).
-
-* Bug fixes involving:
-    - Declarations in regex.h and non-ANSI compilers.
-    - Bracket expressions with characters between 0x80-0xff.
-    - Memory leak in re_match_2 on systems requiring `alloca (0)' to
-      free alloca'd storage.
-
-* Test and documentation files moved into subdirectories.
-
-Version 0.10 (9 Sep 92)
-
-* `obscure_syntax' is now called `re_default_syntax'.
-
-* `re_comp's return type is no longer `const', for compatibility with BSD.
-
-* POSIX syntaxes now include as much functionality as possible
-  (consistent with the standard).
-
-* Compilation conditionals normalized to what the rest of GNU is
-  migrating towards these days.
-
-* Bug fixes involving:
-    - Ranges with characters between 0x80 and 0xff, e.g., [\001-\377].
-    - `re_compile_fastmap' and the sequence `.*\n'.
-    - Intervals with exact counts, e.g., a{5}.
-
-* Changed distribution to use a standard Makefile, install the info
-  files, use a configure script, etc.
-
-Version 0.9
-
-* The longest match was not always chosen: `a*|ab' didn't match `aab'.
