Global changes
--------------

-  CREDITS renamed to AUTHORS.

-  man/
   -  Don't use bold/italics for forward declarations of function
      parameters.  This differentiates them from actual parameters.
   -  fcntl(2) and futex(2) have been split into smaller pages that are
      easier to read, and also easier to maintain.
   -  Add section man3attr, for attributes.


Changes to individual files
---------------------------

-  man/
   -  realloc(3): Clarify (non)conformance of realloc(p,0) in glibc.

The manual pages and other files in the repository have been improved
beyond what this changelog covers.  To learn more about changes applied
to individual pages, or the authors of changes, use git(1).
