+  * include/hbapi.h
+    - deleted unused old HB_BASEARRAY_PTR type. INCOMPATIBLE.
+      Same as PHB_BASEARRAY, use this instead.
+
+  * include/hbtypes.h
+  * src/vm/maindllp/dllext.c
+    + added hb_macroTextValue() to hbmaindllp.
+
+  ; TODO: rename all HB_ITEM_PTR to PHB_ITEM and delete former.
+          pls shout if there is any difference in usage between
+          these two.
