Hi all,

Considering that the erratum workaround option was backported to 4.8, I 
assume we'll need an item for that
in the changes.html for that branch?

The text is the same as in the trunk version that I committed recently.

Ok?
Thanks,
Kyrill

Good point.

Yes.  It will be good note note which minor release is the first
with this fix, though.
