+changes in sbcl-0.9.4 relative to sbcl-0.9.3:
+ * enhancement: SBCL on MIPS platforms now has a much larger dynamic
+ space for its heap. (thanks to Thiemo Seufer)
+ * minor incompatible change: eof selects abort in the debugger.
+ * minor incompatible change: *INVOKE-DEBUGGER-HOOK* is run before
+ *DEBUGGER-HOOK* => *DEBUGGER-HOOK* is not run when the debugger
+ is disabled.
+ * minor incompatible change: SB-KERNEL:INSTANCE-LAMBDA is
+ deprecated, and will go away in a future revision of SBCL.
+ * bug fix: discriminating functions for generic function classes
+ with non-standard methods for COMPUTE-APPLICABLE-METHODS no longer
+ make invalid assumptions about method precedence order. (reported
+ by Bruno Haible)
+ * bug fix: degree sign (<U00B0>) could not be encoded in KOI8-R.
+ * bug fix: correct pathname printing with printer escaping is on.
+ (thanks to Kevin Reid)
+ * bug fix: complex VOP definitions in "user-space" no longer trigger
+ package locks. (reported by Zach Beane)
+ * fixed bug 343: SB-KERNEL:INSTANCE-LAMBDA is no longer necessary
+ for funcallable-instance functions, and is no different from
+ regular LAMBDA.
+ * optimizations: REMOVE-DUPLICATES now runs in linear time on
+ lists in some cases. This partially fixes bug 384.
+ * flush all standard streams before prompting in the REPL and the
+ debugger.
+ * threads
+ ** bug fix: RELEASE-FOREGROUND doesn't choke on session lock if
+ there is only one thread in the session
+ ** bug fix: memory leak for streams created in one thread and
+ written to in another
+
changes in sbcl-0.9.3 relative to sbcl-0.9.2:
* New feature: Experimental support for bivalent streams: streams
opened with :element-type :default now allow character and binary
* optimizations: LOGNOR on fixnums is improved in the MIPS backend.
(Thanks to Thiemo Seufer)
* bug fix: nested reader invokations work correctly
+ * bug fix: it is possible to have simultaneous references to foreign
+ code and foreign data with the same name.
* threads
** added x86-64 support
** incompatible change: the threading api now works with thread
** bug fix: fixed thread safety issues in read and print
** bug fix: debugger doesn't hang on session lock if interrupted at
an inappropriate moment
+ ** bug fix: run-program is now thread safe(r)
+ ** bug fix: inner with-recursive-lock no longer releases the mutex
+ * fixed a bug in (DECODE-UNIVERSAL-TIME 0) (reported by Paul Dietz)
* fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
** TYPE-ERRORs from signalled by COERCE now have DATUM and
EXPECTED-TYPE slots filled.
values form.
** MAKE-CONDITION accepts classes as type-designators.
** COMPILE may never return NIL.
+ ** ENCODE-UNIVERSAL-TIME now guards against times out of Unix's
+ range before calling Unix time functions
changes in sbcl-0.9.2 relative to sbcl-0.9.1:
* numerous signal handling fixes to increase stability
