While the semantics changes pointed out previously are true, I think the biggest change is in regard to fouls "designed to stop or keep the clock from starting."
Per a technical reading of the previous rule, ANY foul which was designed to stop the clock (even if part of playing the ball) should be called an intentional foul. The new rule gives some discretion to do what we've always done - call a common foul when the losing team is using 'legitimate' fouls to stop the clock.
