 ### Bug Fixes
 
+* **bazel:** Cache fileNameToModuleName lookups ([#25731](https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/25731)) ([3e690e0](https://github.com/angular/angular/commit/3e690e0))
 * **bazel:** only lookup amd module-name tags in .d.ts files ([#25710](https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/25710)) ([7aff364](https://github.com/angular/angular/commit/7aff364))
 
 
+Note: the 1.6.5 release on npm accidentally glitched-out midway, so we cut 6.1.6 instead. sorry! :-)
