================
Comment at: clang/docs/ReleaseNotes.rst:410-412
+- The driver option ``-menable-unsafe-fp-math`` has been removed. Passing it, 
will
+result in a hard error. To enable unsafe floating-point optimizations, the 
compiler
+options ``-funsafe-math-optimizations`` and ``-ffast-math`` are used instead.
