Is there a changelog entry for release 7.16 that you can point at in your commit log message?

It's not that I do not believe you, but I'd feel happier to see independent success stories/confirmation, as I do not know if we have broken non-multi codepath lately. How many people still use the non-multi codepath I wonder?
