+Major changes in 3.7.1
+======================
+
+* 3.7.0 was released with an inadvertent change to the signature of the C
+  API function: LLVMBuildLandingPad, which made the C API incompatible with
+  prior releases.  This has been corrected in LLVM 3.7.1.
+
+  As a result of this change, 3.7.0 is not ABI compatible with 3.7.1.
