 * On Linux, the clock function now uses the clock_gettime system call
   for improved precision, rather than old times system call.
 
+* Added support for version-3 tz format files.  This is needed when using
+  the tz database release 2013e or later, and affects a few unusual cases --
+  currently only TZ='America/Godthab' for time stamps after 2037.
+
 * Added new API functions pthread_getattr_default_np and
   pthread_setattr_default_np to get and set the default pthread
   attributes of a process.
