+ * minor incompatible change: the sb-grovel contrib now treats C
+ structures as alien (in the sense of SB-ALIEN) objects rather than
+ as undistinguished (simple-array (unsigned-byte 8) (*))s. This
+ has implications for memory management of client code
+ (sb-grovel-returned objects must now be manually managed) and for
+ type safety (alien objects now have full types).
+ * new feature: the SB-EXT:MUFFLE-CONDITIONS declaration should be
+ used to control emission of compiler diagnostics, rather than the
+ SB-EXT:INHIBIT-WARNINGS OPTIMIZE quality. See the manual for
+ documentation on this feature. The SB-EXT:INHIBIT-WARNINGS
+ quality should be considered deprecated.
+ * install.sh now installs the user manual as well
+ * (not quite a new documentable feature, but worth considering in
+ the light of the new SB-EXT:MUFFLE-CONDITIONS declaration): the
+ beginnings of a semantically meaningful condition hierarchy is
+ under development, for use in SB-EXT:MUFFLE-CONDITIONS and by
+ IDEs.
+ * fixed bug: DEFCLASS slot definitions with identical :READER and
+ :WRITER names now signal a reasonable error. (reported by Thomas
+ Burdick)
+ * fixed bug: CLOSE :ABORT T on appending stream no longer causes
+ file deletion.
+ * fixed bug: Invalid slot specification errors now print correctly.
+ (thanks to Zach Beane)
+ * fixed bug 320: Shared to local slot value transfers in class
+ redefinitions now happen corrently from superclasses as
+ well. (reported by Bruno Haible)
+ * fixed bug 316: SHIFTF now accepts VALUES forms. (reported by Bruno
+ Haible)
+ * fixed bug 322: DEFSTRUCT :TYPE LIST type predicates now handle
+ improper lists correctly. (reported by Bruno Haible)
