+    <li>The variadic function ABI implementation is now compatible to the past
+    Andes toolchains where caller uses registers to pass arguments and callee
+    is in charge of pushing them into stack.</li>
+    <li>The options <code>-mforce-fp-as-gp</code>,
<code>-mforbid-fp-as-gp</code>,
+    and <code>-mex9</code> have been removed since they are not
available yet in
+    the nds32 port of GNU binutils package.</li>
+    <li>New option <code>-mcmodel=[small|medium|large]</code> is provided to
+    support varied code model on code generation.  The <code>-mgp-direct</code>
+    option now becomes meaningless and can be discarded.</li>
