* Noteworthy changes in release ?.? (????-??-??) [?]
+** Bug fixes
+
+ With -P, patterns like [\d] now work again. The fix relies on PCRE2
+ support for the PCRE2_EXTRA_ASCII_BSD flag planned for PCRE2 10.43.
+ With PCRE2 version 10.42 or earlier, behavior reverts to that of
+ grep 3.8, in that patterns like \w and \b use ASCII rather than
+ Unicode interpretations.

* Noteworthy changes in release 3.10 (2023-03-22) [stable]
