The original PPC backend was the work of Gary Byers. Some bug fixes
cleanup, not visible at the user level but important for
maintenance. (E.g. converting the PCL code to use LOOP instead
of the old weird pre-ANSI ITERATE macro so that the code can be

Matthias Hoelzl:
He reported and fixed COMPILE's misbehavior on macros.
Arthur Lemmens:
He found and fixed a number of SBCL bugs while partially porting

- for Windows? -- which could probably be found in the sbcl-devel
- archives>.

Robert MacLachlan:
He has continued to answer questions about, and contribute fixes to,
patched code to SBCL to enable dynamic loading of object files
under OpenBSD.
+Eric Marsden:
+ Some of his fixes to CMU CL since the SBCL fork have been ported

+Antonio Martinez-Shotton:
+ He has contributed a number of bug fixes and bug reports to SBCL.

Dave McDonald:
He made a lot of progress toward getting SBCL to be bootstrappable
under CLISP.
+Gerd Moellman:
+ He has made many cleanups and improvements, small and large, in
+ CMU CL (mostly in PCL), which we have gratefully ported to SBCL.

William ("Bill") Newman:
He continued to maintain SBCL after the fork, increasing ANSI
compliance, fixing bugs, regularizing the internals of the
INITIALS GLOSSARY (helpful when reading comments, CVS commit logs, etc.)
