+ sys_pre_expand: Fix BASE never being set</p>
+ <p>
+ Commit a612e99fb5aaa934fe5a8591db0f083d7fa0b20a turned
+ module attributes from 2-tuples to 3-tuples but forgot to
+ update get_base/1, breaking BASE for parametric modules.</p>

+ <p>
+ The compiler will now issue a warning if literal tuple
+ funs are used. For example, {erlang,is_tuple}(X) will now
+ generate a warning.</p>

+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ The compiler will now warn for illegal sizes for segments
+ in binary construction. For example,
+ &lt;&lt;X:(2.5)&gt;&gt; will now cause the compiler to
+ issue a warning.</p>

+ <p>
+ Fix the erlc -MP flag</p>
+ <p>
+ Because of a copy-and-paste error in erlc.c, the -MP flag
+ had the same effect as -MG. As a workaround, you had to
+ pass +makedep_phony to enable the MP option. This patch
+ makes -MP work as intended.</p>
