 *** Changes since GDB 6.1:
 
+* Signal trampoline code overhauled
+
+Many generic problems with GDB's signal handling code have been fixed.
+These include: backtraces through non-contiguous stacks; recognition
+of sa_sigaction signal trampolines; backtrace from a NULL pointer
+call; backtrace through a signal trampoline; step into and out of
+signal handlers; and single-stepping in the signal trampoline.
+
+These fixes were tested on i386 GNU/Linux systems that include a 2.4
+kernel.
+
 * Cygwin support for DWARF 2 added.
 
 * Fixed build problem on IRIX 5
