<!-- Items added after release should be formatted thusly:
<li>YYYY-MM-DD: Description of problem
...</li>
-->
<li>IOCs running on some versions of Cygwin may display warnings at iocInit
about duplicate EPICS CA Address list entries. These warnings might be due
to a bug in Cygwin; they are benign and can be ignored.</li>
<li>64-bit Windows builds of the CAS library may not work with some compilers.
The code in <tt>src/legacy/gdd</tt> is incompatible with the LLP64 model
that Windows uses for its 64-bit ABI.</li>
