 *                   Important Behavior Changes                             *
 ****************************************************************************
 
+- QSharedMemory on Unix systems now no longer creates shared memory
+  segments that are readable and writeable to everyone. From Qt 5.0.1
+  forward, the segments are created readable and writeable only by the
+  current user. This matches the behavior on Windows.
