+<pre>
+The birthday release includes a new Search capability inside the sort package.
+It takes an unusual but very general and easy-to-use approach to searching
+arbitrary indexable sorted data. See the documentation for details:
+ http://golang.org/pkg/sort/#Search
+
+The ARM port now uses the hardware floating point unit (VFP). It still has a
+few bugs, mostly around conversions between unsigned integer and floating-point
+values, but it's stabilizing.
+
+In addition, there have been many smaller fixes and updates:
+
+* 6l: generate dwarf variable names with disambiguating suffix.
+* container/list: make Remove return Value of removed element.
+ makes it easier to remove first or last item.
+* crypto: add cast5 (default PGP cipher),
+ switch block cipher methods to be destination first.
+* crypto/tls: use pool building for certificate checking
+* go/ast: change embedded token.Position fields to named fields
+ (preparation for a different position representation)
+* net: provide public access to file descriptors (thanks Keith Rarick)
+* os: add Expand function to evaluate environment variables.
+* path: add Glob (thanks Benny Siegert)
+* runtime: memequal optimization (thanks Graham Miller)
+ prefix all external symbols with "runtimeĀ·" to avoid
+ conflicts linking with external C libraries.
