+Bugs fixed in 1.7.6b:
+* The implementation of automake's --no-force option is unreliable,
+  so this option is ignored in this version.  A real fix will appear in
+  Automake 1.8.  (Debian Bug #206299)
+* AM_PATH_PYTHON: really check the whole list of interpreters if no
+  argument is given.  (PR/399)
+* Do not warn about leading `_' in variable names, even with -Wportability.
+* Support user redefinitions of TEXINFO_TEX.
+* depcomp: support AIX Compiler version 6.
+* Fix missing rebuilds during `make dist' with BSD make.
+  (Could produce tarballs containing out-of-date files.)
+* Resurrect multilib support.
+* Noteworthy manual updates:
+  - Extending aclocal: how to write m4 macros that won't trigger warnings
+    with Automake 1.8.
+  - A Shared Library: Rewrite and split into subsections.
+
 Bugs fixed in 1.7.6:
 * Fix depcomp's icc mode for ICC 7.1.
 * Diagnose calls to AC_CONFIG_FILES and friends with not enough arguments.
