* `iszero(x)` efficiently checks whether `x == zero(x)` (including arrays) can be used in 0.5 and earlier ([#19950]).

* `.&` and `.|` are short syntax for `broadcast(&, xs...)` and `broadcast(|, xs...)` (respectively) in Julia 0.6 (only supported on Julia 0.5 and above) [#17623](https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/pull/17623)

* `take!` method for `Task`s since some functions now return `Channel`s instead of `Task`s ([#19841])

* The `isabstract`, `parameter_upper_bound`, `typename` reflection methods were added in Julia 0.6. This package re-exports these from the `Compat.TypeUtils` submodule. On earlier versions of julia, that module contains the same functions, but operating on the pre-0.6 type system representation.

* `broadcast` is supported on tuples of the same lengths on 0.5. ([#16986])

## Renamed functions

* `pointer_to_array` and `pointer_to_string` have been replaced with `unsafe_wrap(Array, ...)` and `unsafe_wrap(String, ...)` respectively
