+ <p>When specified, the <c>+{source,Name}</c> option will
+ now override the actual file name in stack traces,
+ instead of only affecting the return value of
+ <c>Mod:module_info()</c>.</p>
+ <p>The <c>+deterministic</c> flag will also affect stack
+ traces now, omitting all path information except the file
+ name, fixing a long-standing issue where deterministic
+ builds required deterministic paths.</p>
