 ## **[Unreleased]**
 
+- [#995](https://github.com/wasmerio/wasmer/pull/995) Detect when a global is read without being initialized (emit a proper error instead of panicking)
 - [#992](https://github.com/wasmerio/wasmer/pull/992) Updates WAPM version to 0.4.1, fix arguments issue introduced in #990
 - [#990](https://github.com/wasmerio/wasmer/pull/990) Default wasmer CLI to `run`.  Wasmer will now attempt to parse unrecognized command line options as if they were applied to the run command: `wasmer mywasm.wasm --dir=.` now works!
 - [#987](https://github.com/wasmerio/wasmer/pull/987) Fix `runtime-c-api` header files when compiled by gnuc.
