OTP-7006  The SMP emulator on sparc64 erroneously used the sparc32
           atomic and the sparc32 spinlock implementations which
           caused it to crash.

OTP-7012  Matching an empty binary in a record and then using the
           same record again could cause a compiler crash.

           Example code that triggers the crash:

           -record(r, {a,b}).
           t(R) ->
             #r{a = <<>>} = R,
             R#r.b.

OTP-7013  file:read/2 and file:consult_stream/1,3 did not use an empty
           prompt on I/O devices. This bug has now been corrected.

OTP-7014  configuring --enable-darwin-universal or --enable-darwin-64bit
           on MacOSX could result in a non optimized emulator. Top level
           configure script now corrected.

OTP-7015  configuring --with-gd did not produce correct include flags
           for percept.
