 **Bug Fixes**
 
+- The default PTQ recipes now leave multi-token-prediction (MTP) layers unquantized in Megatron vision-language models too (``language_model.mtp.*``), as they already did at the model root.
 - Fix ONNX quantization placing a per-tensor Q/DQ pair on a rank-0 (scalar) constant input, which TensorRT's ONNX parser rejects (``convertAxis`` asserts the quantization axis lies in ``[0, nbDims]`` but ``nbDims == 0``). Rank-0 constant operands are now kept unquantized in the int8, fp8, and autotune export paths; the existing single-element Mul/Div/Pad stripping stays gated under ``target_dla``.
 - Fix PTQ of native Transformers FP8 experts to apply source weight scales during calibration and export. Re-quantize affected checkpoints from the original FP8 source.
 - Fix ONNX preprocessing with custom TensorRT plugin libraries on TensorRT 11.
