 What's new in ELF Support?
 ==========================
 
+LLD 3.9 is a major milestone for us. It is the first release that can
+link real-world large userland programs. In fact, it can now be used
+to produce most userland programs distributed as part of FreeBSD.
+Many contributors have joined to the project to develop new features,
+port it to new architectures and fix issues since the last release.
+
+LLD 3.9 is as fast as it was. That is, roughly speaking, 2x faster
+than GNU gold.
