+changes relative to sbcl-1.0.41
+ * build changes
+ ** Cross-compilation host is now specified to make.sh using
+ command-line argument --xc-host=<command> instead of a positional
+ argument. (thanks to Daniel Herring)
+ ** Install location can be specified to make.sh using command-line
+ argument --prefix=<path>. (lp#550889s, thanks to Daniel Herring)
+ * optimization: The default implementation of
+ COMPUTE-DISCRIMINATING-FUNCTION does much less wasted work.
+ * enhancement: Explicit memory barrier operations are now available for use
+ by multithreaded code. See documentation for details.
+ * enhancement: Experimental support for threading on Linux/PPC.
+ * bug fix: RENAME-PACKAGE returns the package. (Thanks to Eric Marsden)

+changes in sbcl-1.0.41 relative to sbcl-1.0.40:
* optimization: validity of observed keyword initargs to MAKE-INSTANCE is
cached, leading to many fewer expensive calls to
COMPUTE-APPLICABLE-METHODS.
+ * optimization: in the (unoptimized) general method for MAKE-INSTANCE on a
+ CLASS argument, search for and call an appropriate optimized ctor function
+ if it exists.
* bug fix: WRITE always returns the correct value.
