 *** The new command 'recenter-current-error', bound to 'l' in Occur or
 compilation buffers, recenters the current displayed occurrence/error.

+*** Occur mode may use a different type for 'occur-target' property values.
+The value was previously always a marker set to the start of the first
+match on the line but can now also be a list of (BEGIN . END) pairs
+of markers delimiting each match on the line.
+This is a fully compatible change to the internal occur-mode
+implementation, and code creating their own occur-mode buffers will
+work as before.
