- Added coinductive sized predicates, async fn future output annotations, and varargs support for non‑C call conventions; stabilized many const APIs (integer ilog, char conversions) and merged crossbeam channel into std::sync::mpsc.
- Optimized MIR constant propagation, field‑ordering layout, and LLVM archive writer; expanded platform support with new tier‑3 targets and promoted UEFI to tier‑2.
- Breaking changes: repr(Rust) layout may increase type sizes, underscore‑suffixed string literals are now hard errors, and Cargo now errors on duplicate registry indices; 0.5 rounding now follows tie‑to‑even.
