+Changes since 2.6:
+
+The PowerPC assembler now allows the use of symbolic register names (r0, etc.)
+if -mregnames is used. Symbolic names preceded by a '%' (%r0, etc.) can be
+used any time. PowerPC 860 move to/from SPR instructions have been added.
+
+Alpha Linux (ELF) support added.
+
+PowerPC ELF support added.
+
+m68k Linux (ELF) support added.
+
+i960 Hx/Jx support added.
+
+i386/PowerPC gnu-win32 support added.
+
+SCO ELF support added. For OpenServer 5 targets (i386-unknown-sco3.2v5) the
+default is to build COFF-only support. To get a set of tools that generate ELF
+(they'll understand both COFF and ELF), you must configure with
+target=i386-unknown-sco3.2v5elf.
+
+m88k-motorola-sysv* support added.
+
Changes since 2.5:
Gas now directly supports macros, without requiring GASP.
-Gas now has an MRI assembler compatibility mode.
+Gas now has an MRI assembler compatibility mode. Use -M or --mri to select MRI
+mode. The pseudo-op ``.mri 1'' will switch into the MRI mode until the ``.mri
+0'' is seen; this can be convenient for inline assembler code.
+
+Added --defsym SYM=VALUE option.
Added -mips4 support to MIPS assembler.
