Here is my summary of the corresponding list in the C11 standard

Thank you, Tim. What I'm taking away from this is that I'm not
personally affected by the changes. The getsectomy is a welcome
surprise, and the rest I can safely ignore.
 
No doubt others will appreciate your summary for other reasons,
so I've scribbled them down locally. Thanks again.
 

Apart from removal of gets() and not going into numerics for sake of
brevity, C11 has several useful additions to "old" library stuff, some
long overdue.
The #1 on my list is qsort_s().
The #2 is timespec_get().
