 ** Functions for handling `scm_option' now no longer require an argument
 indicating length of the `scm_t_option' array.
 
+** Primitive procedures (aka. "subrs") are now stored in double cells
+This removes the subr table and simplifies the code.
+
+** Primitive procedures with more than 3 arguments (aka. "gsubrs") are
+no longer implemented using the "compiled closure" mechanism.  This
+simplifies code and reduces both the storage and run-time overhead.

 Changes in 1.8.7 (since 1.8.6)
 
 * Bugs fixed
 
+** Fix compilation with `--disable-deprecated'
 ** Fix %fast-slot-ref/set!, to avoid possible segmentation fault
 ** Fix MinGW build problem caused by HAVE_STRUCT_TIMESPEC confusion
 ** Fix build problem when scm_t_timespec is different from struct timespec
+** Fix build when compiled with -Wundef -Werror
+
+** Allow @ macro to work with (ice-9 syncase)
+
+Previously, use of the @ macro in a module whose code is being
+transformed by (ice-9 syncase) would cause an "Invalid syntax" error.
+Now it works as you would expect (giving the value of the specified
+module binding).
+
+** Have `scm_take_locale_symbol ()' return an interned symbol (bug #25865)
