-XXX
+The option to define C<PERL_POLLUTE> to expose older 5.005 symbols for backwards
+compatibility has been removed. It's use was always discouraged, and MakeMaker
+contains a more specific escape hatch:
+
+    perl Makefile.PL POLLUTE=1

+=item Declare API incompatibility between blead releases
+
+Only stable releases (5.10.x, 5.12.x, 5.14.x, ...) guarantee binary
+compatibility with each other, while blead releases (5.13.x, 5.15.x, ...) often
+break this compatibility. However, prior to perl 5.13.4, all blead releases had
+the same C<PERL_API_REVISION>, C<PERL_API_VERSION>, and C<PERL_API_SUBVERSION>,
+effectively declaring them as binary compatible, which they weren't. From now
+on, blead releases will have a C<PERL_API_SUBVERSION> equal to their
+C<PERL_SUBVERSION>, explicitly marking them as incompatible with each other.
+
+Maintainance releases of stable perl's will continue to make no intentionally
+incompatible changes.
