+ Fixed issue where using controlling_process/2 with self()
+ as the second argument caused the port to leak if self()
+ crashes. (Thanks to Ricardo Catalinas Jim�nez)</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-10094</p>

+ <p>
+ When sending large files using the file:sendfile fallback
+ file:sendfile would crash. This is now fixed.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-10098</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Fix rpc:call/5 for local calls with a finite Timeout
+ (Thanks to Tomer Chachamu)</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-10149</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ fix escript/primary archive reloading</p>
+ <p>
+ If the mtime of an escript/primary archive file changes
+ after being added to the code path, correctly reload the
+ archive and update the cache. (Thanks to Tuncer Ayaz)</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-10151</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Support added for home directories named with non-ASCII
+ characters (codepoints above 127) on a system running in
+ Unicode file mode (e.g. on MacOSX or Linux with startup
+ arguments +fnu or +fna with the right LOCALE). Also
+ environment variables with Unicode content are supported
+ in applicable environments.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-10160</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Allow mixed IPv4 and IPv6 addresses to sctp_bindx</p>
+ <p>
+ Also allow mixed address families to bind, since the
+ first address on a multihomed sctp socket must be bound
+ with bind, while the rest are to be bound using
+ sctp_bindx. At least Linux supports adding address of
+ mixing families. Make inet_set_faddress function
+ available also when HAVE_SCTP is not defined, since we
+ use it to find an address for bind to be able to mix ipv4
+ and ipv6 addresses. Thanks to Tomas Abrahamsson</p>
