+* The :program:`llvm-rc` tool (Windows Resource Compiler) has been improved
+  a bit. There are still known missing features, but it is generally usable
+  in many cases. (The tool still doesn't preprocess input files automatically,

+  targets, in addition to ELF. For Thumb, it can now also automatically
+  deduce the instruction size, without having to specify it with
+  e.g. ``.inst.w`` as before.

 Changes to the X86 Target

- During this release ...
+* The calling convention for the ``f80`` data type on MinGW targets has been
+  fixed. Normally, the calling convention for this type is handled within clang,
+  but if an intrinsic is used, which LLVM expands into a libcall, the
+  proper calling convention needs to be supported in LLVM as well. (Note,
+  on Windows, this data type is only used for long doubles in MinGW
+  environments - in MSVC environments, long doubles are the same size as
+  normal doubles.)
