+- Update to release 2.8.97
+  * Fixed wsdl2h processing of schemas with a cyclic schema
+    `<xs:include>` that may cause wsdl2h to hang when schemas
+    have no `targetNamespace` attribute.
+  * Improved wsdl2h code generation of unqualified types and
+    names defined in imported schemas (with `<xs:import>`) when
+    these schemas have no `targetNamespace`. Use wsdl2h option
+    `-z10` or lesser to revert to the code generation behavior of
+    versions prior to 2.8.97.
