 ** The Emacs garbage collector assumes GC_MARK_STACK == GC_MAKE_GCPROS_NOOPS.
 The GC_MAKE_GCPROS_NOOPS stack-marking variant has been the default
 since Emacs 24.4, and the other variants were undocumented and were
 obstacles to maintenance and development.  GC_MARK_STACK and its
 related symbols have been removed from the C internals.

 ** 'configure' now prefers gnustep-config when configuring GNUstep.
 If gnustep-config is not available, the old heuristics are used.

 ** The configure option '--with-pkg-config-prog' has been removed.

----
 ** The configure option '--with-mmdf' has been removed.
 It was no longer useful, as it relied on libraries that are no longer
 supported, and its presence led to confusion during configuration.
 This affects only the 'movemail' utility; Emacs itself can still
 process MMDF-format files as before.

 ** The configure option '--enable-silent-rules' is now the default,
 and silent rules are now quieter.  To get the old behavior where
 'make' chatters a lot, configure with '--disable-silent-rules' or
 build with 'make V=1'.

 ** The configure option '--with-gameuser' now allows you to specify a
 group instead of a user if its argument is prefixed by ':' (a colon).
 This will cause the game score files in "${localstatedir}/games/emacs"

 be installed setgid.  The option now defaults to the 'games' group.
