+ The 1.12 branch is only adequate for systems requiring makewhatis(8)
+ and apropos(1) support but lacking either SQLite3 or fts(3).
+ Otherwise, please migrate to the 1.13 branch.
+ See the INSTALL file for details.
  This file lists the most important changes in the mdocml.bsd.lv distribution.
+ Changes in version 1.12.4, released on August 20, 2014
+ The following bugfixes are not yet contained in 1.13.1:
+  * In the mdoc(7) parser, a NULL pointer dereference was fixed for .Bl
+    macros having no type and none of -width, -offset, or -compact
+  * In the mdoc(7) parser, a NULL pointer dereference was fixed that could
+    be triggered by invalid macro sequences like .Bl -hang .It Bo .Sh.
+  * In the mdoc(7) parser, an assertion crash was fixed that could be
+    triggered by stray .It macros right after .El.
+  * In the man(7) parser, a memory leak was fixed that could be triggered
+    by certain macros occurring at invalid positions inside .RS and .UR.
+  * In all formatters, interpretation of scaling units was corrected.
+  * In the escape sequence formatter, an out-of-bounds buffer read access
+    was fixed that could be triggered by certain invalid escape sequences.
  Changes in version 1.13.1, released on August 10, 2014
+ The following changes are also contained in 1.12.4:
      --- MAJOR NEW FEATURES ---
-  * A complete apropos(1)/makewhatis(8)/man.cgi(8) suite
-    based on SQLite3 is now included.
   * The roff(7) parser now provides an almost complete implementation
     of numerical expressions.
   * Warning and error messages have been improved in many ways.
