 - Make reanalyze exception tracking work with the new stdlib. https://github.com/rescript-lang/rescript/pull/7328
 - Fix Pervasive.max using boolean comparison for floats. https://github.com/rescript-lang/rescript/pull/7333
 - Experimental: Support nested/inline record types - records defined inside of other records, without needing explicit separate type definitions. https://github.com/rescript-lang/rescript/pull/7241
+- Add unified exponentiation (`**`) operator for numeric types using ES7 `**`. https://github.com/rescript-lang/rescript-compiler/pull/7153
