This is a maintenance release. The following items were fixed and/or added:

VMM: fixes for certain Intel Atom hosts (bug #14915)
VMM: properly restore the complete FPU state for 32-bit guests on 64-bit hosts on Intel Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge CPUs
VMM: new I/O-APIC implementation fixing several bugs and improving the performance under certain conditions (bug #15295 and others)
VMM: fixed a potential Linux guest panic on AMD hosts
VMM: fixed a potential hang with 32-bit EFI guests on Intel CPUs (VT-x without unrestricted guest execution)
GUI: don't allow to start subsequent separate VM instances
GUI: raised upper limit for video capture screen resolution (bug #15432)
GUI: warn if the VM has less than 128MB VRAM configured and 3D enabled
