Thanks Uli!

One problem I see is that Gnats is still not working.  The GNU machine
has moved and Gnats has not been set up.:-(

Shouldn't you mention that the locale format has changed and therefore
the compiled files have to be recompiled.  I suggest:

  The internal locale format has been changed.  All locale information
  has to be regenerated with localedef, static programs using i18n
  features from earlier releases (including test releases) have to be
  recompiled to work properly.

Go ahead with the release,
Andreas
