+	    <p>Cross compilation improvements and other build system
+	    improvements.</p>
+	    <p>Most notable:</p> <list><item> Lots of cross
+	    compilation improvements. The old cross compilation
+	    support was more or less non-existing as well as broken.
+	    Please, note that the cross compilation support should
+	    still be considered as experimental. Also note that old
+	    cross compilation configurations cannot be used without
+	    modifications. For more information on cross compiling
+	    Erlang/OTP see the <c>$ERL_TOP/INSTALL-CROSS.md</c> file.
+	    </item><item> Support for staged install using <url
+	    href="http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/DESTDIR.html">DESTDIR</url>.
+	    The old broken <c>INSTALL_PREFIX</c> has also been fixed.
+	    For more information see the <c>$ERL_TOP/INSTALL.md</c>
+	    file. </item><item> Documentation of the <c>release</c>
+	    target of the top <c>Makefile</c>. For more information
+	    see the <c>$ERL_TOP/INSTALL.md</c> file. </item><item>
+	    <c>make install</c> now by default creates relative
+	    symbolic links instead of absolute ones. For more
+	    information see the <c>$ERL_TOP/INSTALL.md</c> file.
+	    </item><item> <c>$ERL_TOP/configure --help=recursive</c>
+	    now works and prints help for all applications with
+	    <c>configure</c> scripts. </item><item> Doing <c>make
+	    install</c>, or <c>make release</c> directly after
+	    <c>make all</c> no longer triggers miscellaneous
+	    rebuilds. </item><item> Existing bootstrap system is now
+	    used when doing <c>make install</c>, or <c>make
+	    release</c> without a preceding <c>make all</c>.
+	    </item><item> The <c>crypto</c> and <c>ssl</c>
+	    applications use the same runtime library path when
+	    dynamically linking against <c>libssl.so</c> and
+	    <c>libcrypto.so</c>. The runtime library search path has
+	    also been extended. </item><item> The <c>configure</c>
+	    scripts of <c>erl_interface</c> and <c>odbc</c> now
+	    search for thread libraries and thread library quirks the
+	    same way as <c>erts</c> do. </item><item> The
+	    <c>configure</c> script of the <c>odbc</c> application
+	    now also looks for odbc libraries in <c>lib64</c> and
+	    <c>lib/64</c> directories when building on a 64-bit
+	    system. </item><item> The <c>config.h.in</c> file in the
+	    <c>erl_interface</c> application is now automatically
+	    generated in instead of statically updated which reduces
+	    the risk of <c>configure</c> tests without any effect.
