+ * minor incompatible change: due to rearrangement for threads, the
+ control stack and binding stack are now allocated at arbitrary
+ addresses instead of being hardcoded per-port. Users affected by
+ this probably have to be doing advanced things with shared
+ libraries, and will know who they are.
+ * minor incompatible change: Previously, all --eval forms used were
+ processed with READ before any of them were processed with EVAL.
+ Now each --eval form is processed with both READ and EVAL before
+ the next --eval form is processed. (Thus package operations like
+ sbcl --eval "(defpackage :foo)" --eval "(print 'foo::bar)" now
+ work as the user might reasonably expect.)
+ * minor incompatible change: *STANDARD-INPUT* is now only an
+ INPUT-STREAM, not a BIDIRECTIONAL-STREAM. (thanks to Antonio
+ Martinez)
+ * minor incompatible change: Y-OR-N-P is now character-oriented,
+ not line oriented. Also, YES-OR-NO-P now works without errors.
+ (thanks to Antonio Martinez)
+ * sb-aclrepl module improvements: an integrated inspector, added
+ repl features, and a bug fix to :trace command.
+ * Known functions, which cannot be open coded by the backend, are
+ considered to be able to check types of their arguments. (fixing
+ a bug report by Nathan J. Froyd)
+ * fixed a bug in computing method discriminating functions: It is
+ now possible to define methods specialized on classes which have
+ forward-referenced superclasses. (thanks to Gerd Moellmann)
+ * fixed evaluation order in optional entries (reported by Gilbert
+ Baumann)
+ * SB-MOP:ENSURE-CLASS-USING-CLASS now takes its arguments in the
+ specified-by-AMOP order of (CLASS NAME &REST ARGS &KEY).
+ * SB-MOP:COMPUTE-EFFECTIVE-SLOT-DEFINITION now takes the
+ required-by-AMOP NAME argument, as well as CLASS and
+ DIRECT-SLOT-DEFINITIONS. (thanks to Kevin Rosenberg)
+ * fixed bug 20: DEFMETHOD can define methods using names that are
+ not the proper names of classes to designate class specializers.
+ * bug fix: INTERACTIVE-STREAM-P now works on streams associated with
+ Unix file descriptors, instead of blowing up. (thanks to Antonio
+ Martinez)
+ * Garbage collection refactoring: user-visible change is that a
+ call to the GC function during WITHOUT-GCING will not do garbage
+ collection until the end of the WITHOUT-GCING. If you were doing
+ this you were probably losing anyway.
+ * fixed bug in MEMBER type: (MEMBER 0.0) is not the same as
+ (SINGLE-FLOAT 0.0 0.0), because of the existence of -0.0 which is
+ TYPEP the latter but not the former.
+ * The compiler issues a full WARNING for calls to undefined functions
+ with names from the CL package.
+ * MAP-INTO for a vector destination is open coded. (reported by
+ Brian Downing on c.l.l)
+ * bug fix: the long form of DEFINE-METHOD-COMBINATION now accepts a
+ documentation string.
