+* Support for large files, e.g. files larger than 2 GB on many 32-bit hosts.
+  Also, support for larger uids, device ids, etc.
+* Many bug fixes and porting fixes.
+* This release is only for fixes.  A more ambitious test release,
+  with new features, is available as part of the paxutils.  Please see:
+    http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/contrib/paxutils/
+  The fixes in this release are intended to be merged with paxutils
+  at some point, but they haven't been merged yet.
+* An interim GNU tar alpha had new --bzip2 and --ending-file options,
+  but they have been removed to maintain compatibility with paxutils.
+  Please try --use=bzip2 instead of --bzip2.
