3. Functions that take a variable number of arguments
(:c:func:`mps_arena_create`, :c:func:`mps_pool_create`,
:c:func:`mps_fmt_create` and :c:func:`mps_ap_create`) are now
deprecated in favour of functions that use a :term:`keyword
:c:func:`mps_ap_create`, :c:func:`mps_fmt_create_A`) and their
``va_list`` alternatives (:c:func:`mps_arena_create_v` etc.) are
now deprecated in favour of functions that use a :term:`keyword
argument` interface (:c:func:`mps_arena_create_k`,
:c:func:`mps_pool_create_k`, :c:func:`mps_fmt_create_k` and
:c:func:`mps_ap_create_k`). The new interface provides better
:c:func:`mps_pool_create_k`, :c:func:`mps_ap_create_k`,
:c:func:`mps_fmt_create_k`). The new interface provides better
reporting of errors, provides default values for arguments, and
provides forward compatibility. See :ref:`topic-keyword`.
(The old interface continues to be supported, but new features will
become available through the keyword interface only.)

4. :ref:`pool-mfs` no longer refuses to manage blocks that are smaller
than the platform alignment. It now rounds up smaller sizes
internally if necessary.

5. :ref:`pool-mvt` now allows the client to specify the alignment of
blocks allocated from the pool. Use the keyword argument
:c:macro:`MPS_KEY_ALIGN` when creating a pool of class
:c:func:`mps_class_mvt`.

6. On OS X, signals are no longer used for handling memory protection
exceptions. This means that programs are free to handle ``SIGBUS``,
