`rustc` whether to link its own C runtime and libraries or to rely on a external
linker to find them. (Supported only on `windows-gnu`, `linux-musl`, and `wasi` platforms.)
- [You can now use `-C target-feature=+crt-static` on `linux-gnu` targets.][77386]
+ Note: If you're using cargo you must explicitly pass the `--target` flag.
- [Added tier 2\* support for `aarch64-unknown-linux-musl`.][76420]
\* Refer to Rust's [platform support page][forge-platform-support] for more
- [`mem::uninitialized` will now panic if any inner types inside a struct or enum
disallow zero-initialization.][71274]
- [`#[target_feature]` will now error if used in a place where it has no effect.][78143]
+- [Foreign exceptions are now caught by `catch_unwind` and will cause an abort.][70212]
+ Note: This behaviour is not guaranteed and is still considered undefined behaviour,
+ see the [`catch_unwind`] documentation for further information.

+These changes provide no direct user facing benefits, but represent significant

- [Building `rustc` from source now uses `ninja` by default over `make`.][74922]
You can continue building with `make` by setting `ninja=false` in
your `config.toml`.
