Static Analyzer
---------------
-...
+- The static analyzer now supports using the
+ `z3 theorem prover <https://github.com/z3prover/z3>`_ from Microsoft Research
+ as an external constraint solver. This allows reasoning over more complex
+ queries, but performance is ~15x slower than the default range-based
+ constraint solver. To enable the z3 solver backend, clang must be built with
+ the ``CLANG_ANALYZER_BUILD_Z3=ON`` option, and the
+ ``-Xanalyzer -analyzer-constraints=z3`` arguments passed at runtime.
