+  <li> Changed: The function FE_DGPNonparametric::shape_value() and similar
+  functions in the same class returned values and derivatives of shape
+  functions on the reference cell. However, this element is not defined
+  through mapping of shape functions from the reference cell, and consequently
+  it makes no sense to ask for this information. These functions have therefore
+  been changed to throw an exception instead, as documented in
+  FiniteElement::shape_value().
