+ (essentially the same problem as a CMU CL bug reported by Martin
+ Cracauer on cmucl-imp 2002-02-19)
+ There is a hole in structure slot type checking. Compiling and LOADing
+ (declaim (optimize safety))

+ (format t "Is ~a of type ~a a cons? => ~a~%"
+ (foo-bla foo)
+ (type-of (foo-bla foo))
+ (consp (foo-bla foo)))))
+ (f)
+ should signal an error, but in sbcl-0.7.1.21 instead gives the output
+ Is (1 . 1) of type CONS a cons? => NIL
+ without signalling an error.
+
+154:
+ There's some sort of problem with aborting back out of the debugger
+ after a %DETECT-STACK-EXHAUSTION error in sbcl-0.7.1.38. In some cases
+ telling the debugger to ABORT doesn't get you back to the main REPL,
+ but instead just gives you another stack exhaustion error. The problem
+ doesn't occur in the trivial case

+162:
+ (reported by Robert E. Brown 2002-04-16)
+ When a function is called with too few arguments, causing the
+ debugger to be entered, the uninitialized slots in the bad call frame
+ seem to cause GCish problems, being interpreted as tagged data even
+ though they're not. In particular, executing ROOM in the
+ debugger at that point causes AVER failures:
+ * (machine-type)
+ "X86"
+ * (lisp-implementation-version)
+ "0.7.2.12"
+ * (typep 10)
+ ...
+ 0] (room)
+ ...
+ failed AVER: "(SAP= CURRENT END)"
+ (Christophe Rhodes reports that this doesn't occur on the SPARC, which
+ isn't too surprising since there are many differences in stack
+ implementation and GC conservatism between the X86 and other ports.)
+
+165:
+ Array types with element-types of some unknown type are falsely being
+ assumed to be of type (ARRAY T) by the compiler in some cases. The
+ following code demonstrates the problem:
+
+ (defun foo (x)
+ (declare (type (vector bar) x))
+ (aref x 1))
+ (deftype bar () 'single-float)
+ (foo (make-array 3 :element-type 'bar))
+ -> TYPE-ERROR "The value #(0.0 0.0 0.0) is not of type (VECTOR BAR)."
+ (typep (make-array 3 :element-type 'bar) '(vector bar))
+ -> T
+
+ The easy solution is to make the functions which depend on knowing
+ the upgraded-array-element-type (in compiler/array-tran and
+ compiler/generic/vm-tran as of sbcl-0.7.3.x) be slightly smarter about
+ unknown types; an alternative is to have the
+ specialized-element-type slot in the ARRAY-TYPE structure be
+ *WILD-TYPE* for UNKNOWN-TYPE element types.

+
+172:
+ sbcl's treatment of at least macro lambda lists is too permissive;
+ e.g., in sbcl-0.7.3.7:
+ (defmacro foo (&rest rest bar) `(,bar ,rest))
+ (macroexpand '(foo quux zot)) -> (QUUX (QUUX ZOT))
+ whereas section 3.4.4 of the CLHS doesn't allow required parameters
+ to come after the rest argument.
+
+173:
+ The compiler sometimes tries to constant-fold expressions before
+ it checks to see whether they can be reached. This can lead to
+ bogus warnings about errors in the constant folding, e.g. in code
+ like
+ (WHEN X
+ (WRITE-STRING (> X 0) "+" "0"))
+ compiled in a context where the compiler can prove that X is NIL,
+ and the compiler complains that (> X 0) causes a type error because
+ NIL isn't a valid argument to #'>. Until sbcl-0.7.4.10 or so this
+ caused a full WARNING, which made the bug really annoying because then
+ COMPILE and COMPILE-FILE returned FAILURE-P=T for perfectly legal
+ code. Since then the warning has been downgraded to STYLE-WARNING,
+ so it's still a bug but at least it's a little less annoying.

+ The error message from attempting to use a #\Return format
+ directive:
+ (format nil "~^M") ; replace "^M" with a literal #\Return
+ debugger invoked on condition of type SB-FORMAT::FORMAT-ERROR:
+ error in format: unknown format directive
+ ~
+ ^
+ is not terribly helpful; this is more noticeable than parallel cases
+ with e.g. #\Backspace because of the differing newline conventions
+ on various operating systems. (reported by Harald Hanche-Olsen on

+ I've tried to replace it with OWRAPPER, but now OBSOLETE-INSTANCE-TRAP
+ breaks with "NIL is not of type SB-KERNEL:LAYOUT".
+ SBCL 0.7.4.13.
+ partial fix: The undefined variable WRAPPER resulted from an error
+ in recent refactoring, as can be seen by comparing to the code in e.g.
+ sbcl-0.7.2. Replacing WRAPPER with OWRAPPER (done by WHN in sbcl-0.7.4.22)
+ should bring the code back to its behavior as of sbcl-0.7.2, but
