+Potentially Breaking Changes
+============================
+These changes are ones which we think may surprise users when upgrading to
+Clang |release| because of the opportunity they pose for disruption to existing
+code bases.
+
+- Clang will now correctly diagnose as ill-formed a constant expression where an
+  enum without a fixed underlying type is set to a value outside the range of
+  the enumeration's values. Due to the extended period of time this bug was
+  present in major C++ implementations (including Clang), this error has the
+  ability to be downgraded into a warning (via:
+  ``-Wno-error=enum-constexpr-conversion``) to provide a transition period for
+  users. This diagnostic is expected to turn into an error-only diagnostic in
+  the next Clang release. Fixes
+  `Issue 50055: <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/50055>`_.
+- ``-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types`` now defaults to an error in all C
+  language modes. It may be downgraded to a warning with
+  ``-Wno-error=incompatible-function-pointer-types`` or disabled entirely with
+  ``-Wno-implicit-function-pointer-types``. *NOTE* We recommend that projects
+  using configure scripts verify the results do not change before/after setting
+  ``-Werror=incompatible-function-pointer-types`` to avoid incompatibility with
+  Clang 16.
