* Added a configuration variable allowing the "break out of framesets" feature to be switched on and off. Off by default -- there's all sorts of flashy frameset gadgets around, outright abuse is more rare, especially for small default installs.
* Refactored URL fragment handling.
* Made Title::secureAndSplit() slightly more legible.
* Refactored makeGlobalVariablesScript() -- it's not particularly convenient or maintainable to pass all global variables through the template array. The array is there for BC, not flexibility.

... There are certain to be other things too, so this is not intended to be comprehensive, rather the above just stops most of the notifications I observed.
* removing some unused global declarations.
* removing or commenting out or adding comments for unused local vars.
* Adding one or two local var declarations.
* Declaring $matches array passed to preg_match() / preg_match_all() as array() before using [not required, just have a slight preference for the explicitness].
* remove one or two pass-by-reference function declarations where the value is not modified.
* Adding some braces to if-else blocks.
* In Parser.php, stripstrate is now an object rather than an array as per r17820, so we no longer need ask for a reference to it (as in "$x =& $this->mStripState;"), and in fact it's probably just simpler to get rid of $x altogether.
* Moving some preg regexes from "" quoting to '' quoting to stop static analyzer whinging about bad escape sequences.
... up to "LinksUpdate.php" in the includes/ directory.
* Made lines from initialiseMessages() appear as list items during installation
* Moved the bulk of the localisation data from the Language*.php files to the Messages*.php files. Deleted most of the Languages*.php files.
* Introduced "stub global" framework to provide deferred initialisation of core modules.
* Removed placeholder values for $wgTitle and $wgArticle, these variables will now be null during the initialisation process, until they are set by index.php or another entry point.
* Added DBA cache type, for BDB-style caches.
* Removed custom date format functions, replacing them with a format string in the style of PHP's date(). Used string identifiers instead of integer identifiers, in both the language files and user preferences. Migration should be transparent in most cases.
* Simplified the initialisation API for LoadBalancer objects.
* Removed the broken altencoding feature.
* Moved default user options and toggles from Language to User. Language objects are still able to define default preference overrides and extra user toggles, via a slightly different interface.
* Don't include the date option in the parser cache rendering hash unless $wgUseDynamicDates is enabled.
* Merged LanguageUtf8 with Language. Removed LanguageUtf8.php.
* Removed inclusion of language files from the bottom of Language.php. This is now consistently done from Language::factory().
* Add the name of the executing maintenance script to the debug log. Start the profiler during maintenance scripts.
* Added "serialized" directory, for storing precompiled data in serialized form.
