+=== Language changes
+
+* Regexp properties (\p{}) names now ignore underscores, spaces, and case, so
+ \p{ol chiki} is the same as \p{Ol_Chiki}
+* Regexps now support Unicode 5.2 (new characters and scripts)
+* \d, \s, and \w are now ASCII only; use POSIX bracket classes and \p{} for
+ Unicode semantics
+* $: no longer includes the current directory, use require_relative
+* Symbol with an invalid encoding is forbidden to exist.
+
+=== Compilation options
+
+* --program-prefix and --program-suffix no longer act on the shared object
+ names nor paths to libraries.
+
+ use --with-rubylibprefix='${libruby}/${RUBY_INSTALL_NAME}' and
+ --with-soname='${RUBY_INSTALL_NAME}' for the same result as Ruby 1.9.1.
+
+* --with-arch is added for universal binary, instead of
+ --enable-fat-binary option.
