a slew of floating-point-related errors reported by Peter Van Eynde
on July 25, 2000:
- a: (fixed in sbcl-0.6.11.25)
b: SBCL's value for LEAST-POSITIVE-SHORT-FLOAT is bogus, and
should probably be 1.4012985e-45. In SBCL,
(/ LEAST-POSITIVE-SHORT-FLOAT 2) returns a number smaller
than LEAST-POSITIVE-SHORT-FLOAT. Similar problems
exist for LEAST-NEGATIVE-SHORT-FLOAT, LEAST-POSITIVE-LONG-FLOAT,
and LEAST-NEGATIVE-LONG-FLOAT.

- type system errors reported by Peter Van Eynde July 25, 2000:
- c: (SUBTYPEP '(INTEGER (0) (0)) 'NIL) dies with nested errors.
- d: In general, the system doesn't like '(INTEGER (0) (0)) -- it
- blows up at the level of SPECIFIER-TYPE with
- "Lower bound (0) is greater than upper bound (0)." Probably
- SPECIFIER-TYPE should return NIL instead.
- e: (TYPEP 0 '(COMPLEX (EQL 0)) fails with
- "Component type for Complex is not numeric: (EQL 0)."
- This might be easy to fix; the type system already knows
- that (SUBTYPEP '(EQL 0) 'NUMBER) is true.

-58:
- (SUBTYPEP '(AND ZILCH INTEGER) 'ZILCH) => NIL, NIL
- Note: I looked into fixing this in 0.6.11.15, but gave up. The
- problem seems to be that there are two relevant type methods for
- the subtypep operation, HAIRY :COMPLEX-SUBTYPEP-ARG2 and
- INTERSECTION :COMPLEX-SUBTYPEP-ARG1, and only the first is
- called. This could be fixed, but type dispatch is messy and
- confusing enough already, I don't want to complicate it further.
- Perhaps someday we can make CLOS cross-compiled (instead of compiled
- after bootstrapping) so that we don't need to have the type system
- available before CLOS, and then we can rewrite the type methods to
- CLOS methods, and then expressing the solutions to stuff like this
- should become much more straightforward. -- WHN 2001-03-14

+ In the course of trying to build a test case for an
+ application error, I encountered this behavior:
+ If you start up sbcl, and then lay on CTRL-C for a
+ minute or two, the lisp process will eventually say:
+ %PRIMITIVE HALT called; the party is over.
+ and throw you into the monitor. If I start up lisp,
+ attach to the process with strace, and then do the same
+ (abusive) thing, I get instead:
+ access failure in heap page not marked as write-protected
+ and the monitor again. I don't know enough to have the

The system accepts DECLAIM in most places where DECLARE would be
accepted, without even issuing a warning. ANSI allows this, but since
it's fairly easy to mistype DECLAIM instead of DECLARE, and the
interpreter is gone, the system's notion of what's a top-level form
and what's not will remain too confused to fix this problem.]
