From Friday Music's Facebook page:

THE DIVINE MISS M is BACK!!! Her stunning stage show caught on this stellar 1976 release is FINALLY BACK on a 2 CD COMPACT DISC! This is a limited edition c.d., so if you dig BETTE MIDLER doin' her thing for a very hip Cleveland Ohio audience back in her Atlantic Records days......THIS IS THE ONE!

Any bonus tracks?

I remember the HBO special (also from Cleveland) had a rockin version of I Sold My Heart To the Junkman. I wish they'd release the video.

OK, I had no idea this was coming out yet I had a dream about Bette Midler last night so I think I'm going to have to buy this. You might think, being a gay man, I dream of Bette often. But I don't. So I consider this a sign.

They didn't say anything about bonus tracks, so I'm assuming it's a straight reissue/remaster of the original album.

3 years later and they are still selling new copies of this.
I wonder what was so limited about this pressing

Every Friday Music release is solicited as a "limited edition". Except when they provide actual numbers of copies pressed, we can't be sure how limited they are. A Christopher Cross title from 2008 really did turn out to be limited -- went out of print, became a high-priced collectable -- but now Friday are repressing it (and again calling it limited :)):
