   3 Changes in 2.37:
   4
   5 * New features
   6
   7 ** Add ctf_lookup_by_symbol name and ctf_arc_lookup_symbol_name, analogues of
   8    existing ctf_lookup_by_symbol and ctf_arc_lookup_symbol, but looking up
   9    symbols by name rather than symbol number.  This also works in places where no
  10    symbol number is known, like in object files and dynamic dicts created by
  11    ctf_create.
  12
  13 * Bugfixes
  14
  15 ** Avoid duplicating or losing types of data object symbols when
  16    ld -r is used
  17
  18 ** Prohibit typedefs with no name; prevent the linker/deduplicator
  19    producing such typedefs
  20
  21 * Bugfixes, also on 2.36 branch
  22
  23 ** Prevent ctf_lookup_by_name returning success when
  24    looking up nonexistent pointer types
  25
  26 ** Fix ctf_type_add copying of structs with unnamed members
