 #### Changed
  - The point multiplication algorithm used for ECDH operations (module `ecdh`) was replaced with a slightly faster one.
  - Optional handwritten x86_64 assembly for field operations was removed because modern C compilers are able to output more efficient assembly. This change results in a significant speedup of some library functions when handwritten x86_64 assembly is enabled (`--with-asm=x86_64` in GNU Autotools, `-DSECP256K1_ASM=x86_64` in CMake), which is the default on x86_64. Benchmarks with GCC 10.5.0 show a 10% speedup for `secp256k1_ecdsa_verify` and `secp256k1_schnorrsig_verify`.
 
+#### ABI Compatibility
+The ABI is backward compatible with versions 0.4.0 and 0.3.x.

 The number was given by the build system since the introduction of autotools in Jan 2014 (ea0fe5a5bf0c04f9cc955b2966b614f5f378c6f6).
 Therefore, this version number does not uniquely identify a set of source files.
