+  - Future versions of Automake might remove support for MS-DOS and
+    Windows 95/98/ME (support for them was offered by relying on the
+    DJGPP project).  Note however that both Cygwin and MSYS/MinGW on
+    modern Windows versions will continue to be fully supported.

   - Support for the long-deprecated INCLUDES variable will be removed
     altogether in Automake 1.14.  The AM_CPPFLAGS variable should be
     used instead.
