   <ul>

+    <li>DWARF4 is now the default when generating DWARF debug information.

+      When -g is used on a platform that uses DWARF debugging information,

+      GCC will now default to -gdwarf-4 -fno-debug-types-section.

+      GDB 7.5, Valgrind 3.8.0 and elfutils 0.154 debug information consumers

+      support DWARF4 by default. Before GCC 4.8 the default version used

+      was DWARF2. To make gcc 4.8 generate an older DWARF version use -g

+      together with -gdwarf-2 or -gdwarf-3.

+    </li>

     <li>A new general optimization level, <code>-Og</code>, has been

       introduced.  It addresses the need for fast compilation and a

       superior debugging experience while providing a reasonable level
