commit 21d6cfe92cb2736b09eac39fddd39cd70149d3f9

    Use regular paragraphs in the NEWS file
    
    The Debian Developer's Reference recommends using regular paragraphs
    in NEWS.Debian rather than a bulleted list (section 6.3.4).  This
    problem was detected by Lintian (tag debian-news-entry-uses-asterisk).

 octave (3.8.1-2) unstable; urgency=medium
 
-  * The just-it-time (JIT) compiler has been disabled in this version,
-    because it creates problems with the Gallium llvmpipe Mesa driver.
-    Since the JIT is currently very basic, it is not worth the trouble. It
-    may be re-enabled later when the benefits outweigh the costs. See
-    #743260 for more details.

-    experimental graphical user interface (GUI) based on the Qt toolkit.
-    That GUI can be started by giving the `--force-gui' option to the
