+## link_language argument added to all targets
+
+Previously the `link_language` argument was only supposed to be allowed in
+executables, because the linker used needs to be the linker for the language
+that implements the main function. Unfortunately it didn't work in that case,
+and, even worse, if it had been implemented properly it would have worked for
+*all* targets. In 0.55.0 this restriction has been removed, and the bug fixed.
+It now is valid for `executable` and all derivative of `library`.
