+       fts: fts_open: do not let an empty string cause immediate failure
+       This is required in support of GNU rm, for which the command
+       "rm A '' B" must process and remove both A and B, in spite of
+       the empty string argument.
+       * lib/fts.c (fts_open): Do not let the presence of an empty string
+       cause fts_open to fail immediately.  Most fts-using tools must be
+       able to process all arguments, in order, and can be expected to
+       diagnose such arguments themselves.

+
+       utimens: fix compilation error
+       * lib/utimens.c (lutimens) [!HAVE_UTIMENSAT && HAVE_LUTIMES]:
+       Declare variable at right scope.

+       bootstrap: handle perl-5.11's changed --version output
+       * build-aux/bootstrap (get_version): Handle perl separately,
+       since perl-5.11's --version output is different.

+       userspec: depend on the inttostr module, too
+       * modules/userspec (Depends-on): Add inttostr.
+
+       userspec: disallow an ID that maps to (uid_t)-1 or (gid_t)-1
+       * lib/userspec.c (parse_with_separator): Do not accept a user ID
+       number of MAXUID when it evaluates to (uid_t) -1.
+       Likewise for group ID.  Reported by Matt McCutchen in
+       <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?28113>
+
        userspec: reformat to use spaces, not TABs
        * lib/userspec.c: Expand TABs to spaces.
        Add Emacs' "indent-tabs-mode: nil" hint.
