+    <para>The &man.ddb.4; kernel debugger now has an output capture
+      facility.  Input and output from &man.ddb.4; can now be captured

+    <para>The &man.ddb.4; debugger now supports a simple scripting
+      facility, which supports a set of named scripts consisting of a
+      set of &man.ddb.4; commands.  These commands can be managed from
+      within &man.ddb.4; or with the use of the new &man.ddb.8;
+      utility.  More details can be found in the &man.ddb.4; manual
+      page.</para>
+
+    <para>The kernel now supports a new textdump format of kernel
+      dumps.  A textdump provides higher-level information via
+      mechanically generated/extracted debugging output, rather than a
+      simple memory dump.  This facility can be used to generate brief
+      kernel bug reports that are rich in debugging information, but
+      are not dependent on kernel symbol tables or precisely
+      synchronized source code.  More information can be found in the
+      &man.textdump.4; manual page.</para>
