+ A new element, <c>Opts</c>, can now be included in a
+ <c>rel</c> tuple in the reltool release specific
+ configuration format: {rel, Name, Vsn, RelApps, Opts}.</p>
+ <p>
+ This supports the use of <c>{rel, Name, Vsn, RelApps,
+ [{load_dot_erlang, false}]}</c> to prevent the boot
+ script from running the <c>.erlang</c> file.</p>
+ <p>
+ The incompatibilities are as follows:</p>
+ <p>
+ * The return from <c>reltool:get_config/1</c> and
+ <c>reltool:get_config/3</c> includes the new <c>rel</c>
+ tuple for all releases where the <c>load_dot_erlang</c>
+ option is set to <c>false</c>.<br/> * The return from
+ <c>reltool:get_config/3</c> includes the new <c>rel</c>
+ tuple for ALL releases if the <c>InclDefs</c> parameter
+ is set to <c>true</c>.</p>
