<ul>
<li>A new toolchain (based on GCC 4.4.3), which generates better code, and can also now
be used as a standalone cross-compiler, for people who want to build their stuff with
<code>./configure &amp;&amp; make</code>. See
docs/STANDALONE-TOOLCHAIN.html for the details. The binaries for GCC 4.4.0 are still provided,
but the 4.2.1 binaries were removed.</li>
<li>Support for prebuilt static and shared libraries (docs/PREBUILTS.html), module
exports and imports to make sharing and reuse of third-party modules much easier
(docs/IMPORT-MODULE.html explains why).</li>
<li>A C++ STL implementation (based on STLport) is now provided as a helper module. It
can be used either as a static or shared library (details and usage exemple under
sources/android/stlport/README). <strong>Note:</strong> For now, C++ Exceptions and RTTI are still
not supported.</li>
<li>Improvements to the <code>cpufeatures</code> helper library to deal with buggy
kernel that incorrectly report they run on an ARMv7 CPU (while the device really is an ARMv6). We
recommend developers that use it to simply rebuild their applications to benefit from it, then
upload to Market.</li>
<li>Adds support for native activities, which allows you to write completely native
applications.</li>
<li>Adds an EGL library that lets you create and manage OpenGL ES textures and
services.</li>
<li>Provides an interface that lets you write a native text-to-speech engine.</li>
