  Core
  
+ - Warnings about a mismatch in the Python API during extension import
+   now use the Python warning framework (which makes it possible to
+   write filters for these warnings).
+ 
+ - Two new APIs PyOS_snprintf() and PyOS_vsnprintf() were added
+   which provide a cross-platform implementations for the
+   relatively new snprintf()/vsnprintf() C lib APIs. In contrast to
+   the standard sprintf() and vsprintf() C lib APIs, these versions
+   apply bounds checking on the used buffer which enhances protection
+   against buffer overruns.
