        src: UPDATING

Log Message:
Inform that the prop_{array,dictionary}_send_syscall(3) change breaks
backward compatibility with old quota2 binaries, so ensure that you
update both (proplib + quota2 executables) simultaneously when updating
a -current installation.

 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+20111001:
+	the prop_*_send_syscall() functions from proplib(3) have been
+	changed and their new version is not backward compatible with the old
+	one. So ensure that all consumers of these functions (currently:
+	quota2 code and its tests) are updated together with the new lib.

 20110817:
 	sparc has been changed to use GCC 4.5.3, so any objdir or
 	DESTDIR for them should be deleted before updating.
