	    Extended error information for failing BIF calls as
	    proposed in <url
	    href="https://github.com/erlang/eep/blob/master/eeps/eep-0054.md">EEP
	    54</url> has been implemented.</p>
          <p>
	    When a BIF call from the Erlang shell fails, more
	    information about which argument or arguments that were
	    in error will be printed. The same extended error
	    information will by <c>proc_lib</c>, <c>common_test</c>,
	    and <c>qlc</c> when BIF calls fail.</p>
          <p>
	    For applications that wish to provide the same extended
	    error information, there are new functions
	    <c>erl_error:format_exception/3</c> and
	    <c>erl_error:format_exception/4</c>.</p>
          <p>
	    There is a new <c>error/3</c> BIF that allows
	    applications or libraries to provide extended error
	    information in the same way for their own exceptions.</p>

	    <p>EEP-52 has been implemented.</p>
	    <p>In binary matching, the size of the segment to be
	    matched is now allowed to be a guard expression, and
	    similarly in map matching the keys can now be guard
	    expressions. See the Erlang Reference Manual and
	    Programming Examples for more details.</p>
	    <p>Language compilers or code generators that generate
	    Core Erlang code may need to be updated to be compatible
	    with the compiler in OTP 23. For more details, see the
	    section Backwards Compatibility in <url
	    href="http://erlang.org/eeps/eep-0052.html">EEP

	    <p>The deprecated <c>erlang:get_stacktrace/0</c> BIF now
	    returns an empty list instead of a stacktrace. To
	    retrieve the stacktrace, use the extended try/catch
	    syntax that was introduced in OTP 21.
	    <c>erlang:get_stacktrace/0</c> is scheduled for removal
	    in OTP 24.</p>

	    The compiler can handle both the new and the old format
	    (i.e. extracting the abstract format from a pre-R15 BEAM
	    file and compiling it using compile:forms/1,2 will work).
	    The <c>syntax_tools</c> application can also handle both
	    formats.</p>

            <p>It is now possible to encrypt the debug information in

            documentation for compile on how to provide the key for
            encrypting, and the documentation for beam_lib on how to
            provide the key for decryption so that tools such as the
            Debugger, Xref, or Cover can be used.</p>
            <p>The <c>beam_lib:chunks/2</c> functions now accepts an
            additional chunk type '<c>compile_info</c>' to retrieve
