+### Enhancements
+
+* Use subdirs known to conda for selector definitions. (#5009)
+  This allows conda_build to support new architectures with just
+  a new version of conda. For new OSes, there are more information
+  needed for conda_build to work properly, including whether the
+  new OS is a UNIX-like platform, the shared library prefix, and
