+Version 3.9 fixes lots of bugs and this list is selective.
+
+* \select@language did not set \languagename. This meant the language
+ in force when auxiliary files were loaded was the one used in, for
+ example, shorthands -- if the language was german, a
+ \select@language{spanish} had no effect.
+
+* \foreignlanguage and otherlanguage* messed up
+ \extras<language>. Scripts, encodings and many other things were
+ not switched correctly.
+
+* The :ENC mechanism for hyphenation patterns used the encoding of the
+ _previous_ language, not that of the language being selected.
+
+* ' (with activeacute) had the original value when writing to an
+ auxiliary file, and things like an infinite loop could happen. It
+ worked incorrectly with ^ (if activated) and also if deactivated.
+
+* Active chars where not reset at the end of language options, and
+ that lead to incompatibilities between languages.
+
+* \textormath raised and error with a conditional.
+
+* \aliasshorthand didn't work (or only in a few and very specific
+ cases).
+
+* \l@english was defined incorrectly (using \let instead of \chardef).
+
+* ldf files not bundled with babel were not recognized when called as global
+ options.
