+changes relative to sbcl-1.0.53:
+ * minor incompatible changes:
+ ** RENAME-FILE on a symbolic links used to rename the linked-to file instead
+ of the link.
+ ** DELETE-DIRECTORY on symbolic link to a directory used to delete the
+ directory, but now signal an error instead. Use TRUENAME to resolve
+ the pathname if you wish to delete the linked directory, and DELETE-FILE
+ if you wish to delete the
+ * enchancement: on CHENEYGC targets, SB-KERNEL:MAKE-LISP-OBJ now does
+ the same validation of pointer objects as GENCGC does, instead of a
+ comparatively weak bounds-check against the heap spaces.
+ * enhancement: on win32, ABS of complex floats guards better against
+ overflows. (lp#888410)
+ * enhancement: RUN-PROGRAM now distinguishes exec() failing from child
+ process exiting with code 1. (lp#676987)
+ * bug fix: on 64-bit targets, atomic-incf/aref does index computation
+ correctly, even on wide-fixnum builds. (lp#887220)
+ * bug fix: (directory "foo/*/*.*") did not follow symlinks in foo/ that
+ resolved to directories.
+ * bug fix: SB-KERNEL:MAKE-LISP-OBJ on GENCGC no longer categorically
+ refuses to create SIMPLE-FUN objects.
+ * bug fix: type mismatch when assigning to lexical variables no longer
+ result in fasl-dumping internal type objects. (lp#890750)
+ * bug fix: type mismatch on (setf aref) and function return values no
+ longer result in fasl-dumping internal type objects.
+ * bug fix: SB-BSD-SOCKETS foreign memory leaks
+ ** GET-PROTOCOL-BY-NAME had a significant leak.
+ ** GET-HOST-BY-NAME and GET-HOST-BY-ADDRESS leaked 1 word per call on
+ systems providing getaddrinfo().

+changes in sbcl-1.0.53 relative to sbcl-1.0.52:
* enhancement: on 64-bit targets, in src/compiler/generic/early-vm.lisp,
the parameter n-fixnum-tag-bits may now vary from 1 (fixnum =
(signed-byte 63)) to 3 (fixnum = (signed-byte 61)) at build-time.
* bug fix: on SPARC/:sb-unicode, avoid crashing the assembler by trying
to emit literal characters > (code-char 4095), for comparisons with
constant characters.
+ * bug fix: ROOM reported only the low 32 bits of dynamic space usage
+ on 64 bit platforms. (lp#881445)
+ * bug fix: DELETE-FILE did not MERGE-PATHNAMES, making it possible to
+ delete the wrong file when using relative pathnames. (lp#882877)
+ * bug fix: optimized SEARCH of vectors-on-vectors mishandled zero-length
+ sequences and :KEY NIL.
