+## `target_type` in `build_targets` accepts the value 'shared_module'
+
+The `target_type` keyword argument in `build_target()` now accepts the
+value `'shared_module'`.
+
+The statement
+
+```meson
+build_target(..., target_type: 'shared_module')
+```
+
+is equivalent to this:
+
+```meson
+shared_module(...)
+```
