-- i128 support and APInt through most of codegen.
+- Target-independent codegen infastructure now uses LLVM's APInt class for
+ handling integer values, which allow it to support integer types larger
+ than 64 bits. Note that support for such types is also dependent on
+ target-specific support. Use of APInt is also a step toward support for
+ non-power-of-2 integer sizes.
+- Support for 128-bit integers on X86-64.
- Several compile time speedups for code with large basic blocks.
