     giving more useful warnings than a bare "command not found" from a
     make recipe would.
 
+* M4 files:
+
+  - The '.m4' files provided by Automake does not define serial numbers
+    anymore.  This should cause no difference in the behaviour of aclocal
+    though.
+
 * Automake Testsuite:
 
   - Some testsuite weaknesses and spurious failures have been fixed.
 
+* Long-standing bugs:
+
+  - Instead of renaming only self-references of files (typically for
+    #lines), ylwrap now also renames references to the other generated
+    files.  This fixes support for GLR and C++ parsers from Bison (PR
+    automake/491 and automake bug#7648): 'parser.c' now properly
+    #includes 'parser.h' instead of 'y.tab.h'.
+
+  - Generated files unknown to ylwrap are now preserved.  This fixes
+    C++ support for Bison (automake bug#7648): location.hh and the
+    like are no longer discarded.
