Changes to build and runtime requirements:
- [Add changes to build and runtime requirements here]
+* Some headers now make unconditional use of the C2011 'anonymous union'
+ feature. In order to compile a program that uses any of these headers,
+ you must use a compiler that supports this feature, even when conforming
+ to an earlier language standard. This has been true of GCC and Clang for
+ many years. The structures and headers affected are:
+
+ - siginfo_t (signal.h, sys/wait.h)
+
+ The advantage of this change is that these headers define many fewer
+ macros with surprising expansions (for instance, the identifier 'si_pid'
+ used to be a macro expanding to '_sifields._kill.si_pid' on GNU/Linux
+ systems).
