JFYI I'm referring to ye olde Packet Transfer Mode (PTM) DSL, TR-009...
which dispenses with the need for ATM framing on DSL circuits.

Some US ISPs have been observed doing this in the wild. DSL isn't going
away any time soon, though -- many of us still use it as a backup
circuit for other things (vs Metro Ethernet, G.FAST, DOCSIS etc.)

Hopefully, with packet mode DSL, none of this should be needed again.

It should have been included here, but I closed the editor too soon and
figured getting it in the UPDATING entry was sufficent.

`Relnotes: yes` and adding UPDATING entries are complementary
IMHO. UPDATING is meant more for those who upgrade via src (might
contain workarounds, etc), whereas `Relnotes: yes` targets release
notes, which can be used by those doing a binary or src based upgrade.
Thanks for catching this!
