+## New `build target` methods
+
+The [`build target` object](Reference-manual.md#build-target-object) now supports
+the following two functions, to ensure feature compatebility with
+[`external program` objects](Reference-manual.html#external-program-object):
+
+- `found()`: Always returns `true`. This function is meant
+ to make executables objects feature compatible with
+ `external program` objects. This simplifies
+ use-cases where an executable is used instead of an external program.
+
+- `path()`: **(deprecated)** does the exact same as `full_path()`.
+ **NOTE:** This function is solely kept for compatebility
+ with `external program` objects. It will be
+ removed once the, also deprecated, corresponding `path()` function in the
+ `external program` object is removed.

+## Compiler argument checking for `get_supported_arguments`
+
+The compiler method `get_supported_arguments` now supports
+a new keyword argument named `checked` that can be set to
+one of `warn`, `require` or `off` (defaults to `off`) to
+enforce argument checks.
