Usage:  Turn this flag on with "-XX:+TraceExceptions" or turn it off with "-XX:-TraceExceptions".

Note: This flag has been deprecated in favor of "-Xlog:exceptions=info"
Comments
Release note not needed; option removed in favor of UL

Given this is now replaced with UL I'm not sure this release note really makes sense. If anything this should be covered by the release notes for UL and the release notes for deprecated flags.
