The biggest new feature is that most places where variables can be defined can now take a pattern and/or a guard. Conditional forms such as 'if', 'and', and 'match' can also include patterns. Partly to support this, the implementation of how Kawa calls unknown procedures was changed. There are also a lot of changes in the implementation and API for strings.
