 * The following flags have been added: ``/force:multiple``
 
+* In MinGW mode, lld can now automatically import data variables from
+  DLLs without the use of the dllimport attribute.
+
+* lld-link now can link against import libraries produced by GNU tools,
+  and lld with the MinGW frontend can use existing normal MinGW
+  sysroots. ld.lld can handle most object files produced by GCC, and
+  thus works as a drop-in replacement for ld.bfd in such environments.
+
+* lld can create thunks for ARM, to allow linking images over 16 MB.
