+Async-Operations Incorrectly Reporting Success
+----------------------------------------------
+We fixed an issue where async-operations were sometimes reporting sucess when
+they had actually failed. One way this could occur when trying using
+`z_sendmany` to create a transaction spending coinbase funds in a way where
+change would be generated (not a valid use of `z_sendmany`). In this case the
+async-operation would erroneously report success, and the only way to see that
+the transaction had actually failed was to look in the `debug.log` file. Such
+operations will now correctly report that they have failed.
