These are only some of the changes in this release. For a more
detailed list, see "docs/ChangeLog".

A note for OS X users: when running a spectest with a high number of parallel
tests (e.g. with TEST_JOBS=8), it is likely you will see any number between
0 and 10 test-files with failures, usually because they abort midway through
testing. Running these test-files then by themselves, shows no errors
whatsoever. Current theory is that something in the MoarVM build on OS X is
introducing random memory corruption. Any thoughts / suggestions / fixes will
be deeply appreciated.

The development team thanks all of our contributors and sponsors for
making Rakudo Perl possible, as well as those people who worked on
Parrot, the Perl 6 test suite, MoarVM and the specification.
