+ * minor incompatible change: SB-THREAD:JOIN-THREAD-ERROR-THREAD and
+ SB-THREAD:INTERRUPT-THREAD-ERROR-THREAD have been deprecated in favor
+ of SB-THREAD:THREAD-ERROR-THREAD.
+ * new contrib module: SB-QUEUE provides thread-safe lockless FIFO queues.
+ * new feature: docstrings for local and anonymous functions are no longer
+ discarded. (thanks to Leslie Polzer)
+ * new feature: SB-THREAD:SYMBOL-VALUE-IN-THREAD provides access to symbol
+ values in other threads.
+ * new feature: SB-INTROSPECT:ALLOCATION-INFORMATION provides information
+ about object allocation.
+ * optimization: more efficient type-checks for FIXNUMs when the value
+ is known to be a signed word on x86 and x86-64.
+ * optimization: (EXPT -1 INTEGER) is compiled into (IF (EVENP INTEGER) 1 -1).
+ (thanks to Stas Boukarev)
+ * improvement: DESCRIBE output has been reworked to be easier to read and
+ contains more pertinent information.
+ * improvement: failure to provide requested stack allocation compiler notes
+ provided in all cases (requested stack allocation not happening without a
+ note being issued is now considered a bug.)
+ * optimization: compiler is smarter about delegating argument type checks to
+ callees.
