 ### Changes to the LLVM tools
 
+* `opt`, `llc`, and `clang-linker-wrapper` load `-load-pass-plugin` plugins
+  after parsing the command line, so a loaded plugin's options are no longer
+  accepted as ordinary options. Pass them with `-plugin-arg=<plugin>,<arg>`,
+  which calls the plugin's new `PassPluginLibraryInfo::ParseArguments`
+  callback. A plugin that defines `cl::opt` calls `cl::ParseCommandLineOptions`
+  from `ParseArguments`, as the `Bye` example and Polly do.
+  `LLVM_PLUGIN_API_VERSION` is now 3, and `PassPlugin::Load` is renamed to
+  `PassPlugin::load`.

Version bumps are not worth documenting, as are minor renames that are not 
really user-visible.
