-    careful use needs to be made of the conditions in Exim.  Note that
-    this can not yet be used as a drop-in replacement for Cyrus SASL, as
-    Exim is currently unable to construct strings with embedded NULs for

  2. New authenticator driver, "heimdal_gssapi".  Server-only.
     A replacement for using cyrus_sasl with Heimdal, now that $KRB5_KTNAME
     is no longer honoured for setuid programs by Heimdal.  Use the
     "server_keytab" option to point to the keytab.

+ 3. The "pkg-config" system can now be used when building Exim to reference
+    cflags and library information for lookups and authenticators, rather
+    than having to update "CFLAGS", "AUTH_LIBS", "LOOKUP_INCLUDE" and
+    "LOOKUP_LIBS" directly.  Similarly for handling the TLS library support
+    without adjusting "TLS_INCLUDE" and "TLS_LIBS".
+
+ 4. New expansion variable $tls_bits.
+
+ 5. New lookup type, "dbmjz".  Key is an Exim list, the elements of which will
+    be joined together with ASCII NUL characters to construct the key to pass
+    into the DBM library.  Can be used with gsasl to access sasldb2 files as
+    used by Cyrus SASL.
