+changes relative to sbcl-1.0.53:
+ * minor incompatible changes:
+ ** RENAME-FILE on a symbolic links used to rename the linked-to file instead
+ of the link.
+ ** DELETE-DIRECTORY on symbolic link to a directory used to delete the
+ directory, but now signal an error instead. Use TRUENAME to resolve
+ the pathname if you wish to delete the linked directory, and DELETE-FILE
+ if you wish to delete the
+ * enchancement: on CHENEYGC targets, SB-KERNEL:MAKE-LISP-OBJ now does
+ the same validation of pointer objects as GENCGC does, instead of a
+ comparatively weak bounds-check against the heap spaces.
+ * enhancement: on win32, ABS of complex floats guards better against
+ overflows. (lp#888410)
+ * bug fix: on 64-bit targets, atomic-incf/aref does index computation
+ correctly, even on wide-fixnum builds. (lp#887220)
+ * bug fix: (directory "foo/*/*.*") did not follow symlinks in foo/ that
+ resolved to directories.
+ * bug fix: SB-KERNEL:MAKE-LISP-OBJ on GENCGC no longer categorically
+ refuses to create SIMPLE-FUN objects.
+ * bug fix: type mismatch when assigning to lexical variables no longer
+ result in fasl-dumping internal type objects. (lp#890750)
+ * bug fix: type mismatch on (setf aref) and function return values no
+ longer result in fasl-dumping internal type objects.
+ * bug fix: SB-BSD-SOCKETS:GET-PROTOCOL-BY-NAME leaked foreign memory.
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.53 relative to sbcl-1.0.52:
+ * enhancement: on 64-bit targets, in src/compiler/generic/early-vm.lisp,
+ the parameter n-fixnum-tag-bits may now vary from 1 (fixnum =
+ (signed-byte 63)) to 3 (fixnum = (signed-byte 61)) at build-time.
+ * enhancement: SB-EXT:WAIT-FOR allows waiting for arbitrary events.
+ * minor(?) incompatible(?) change: The default fixnum width on 64-bit
+ targets is now 63 bits (up from 61).
+ * enhancement: DESCRIBE now reports a lambda-list and source location
+ for complext setf-expanders.
+ * bug fix: PUSH, PUSHNEW, POP, REMF, INCF, DECF, DEFINE-MODIFY-MACRO,
+ GETF, LOGBITP, LDB, and MASK-FIELD now arrange for non-primary values
+ of multiple-valued places to be set to NIL, instead of signalling an
+ error (per a careful reading of CLHS 5.1.2.3).
+ * bug fix: floating-point traps now work on darwin/x86 and /x86-64.
+ * bug fix: repair crash in x86oid darwin signal handling emulation
+ when built with certain compilers.
+ * bug fix: SB-ROTATE-BYTE misrotated to the right when using constant
+ rotation arguments on x86-64. (lp#882151)
+ * bug fix: low-level control flow optimisations could result in bogus
+ code in functions with tail and non-tail calls to local functions on
+ x86oids. (lp#883500)
+ * bug fix: on SPARC/:sb-unicode, avoid crashing the assembler by trying
+ to emit literal characters > (code-char 4095), for comparisons with
+ constant characters.
+ * bug fix: ROOM reported only the low 32 bits of dynamic space usage
+ on 64 bit platforms. (lp#881445)
+ * bug fix: DELETE-FILE did not MERGE-PATHNAMES, making it possible to
+ delete the wrong file when using relative pathnames. (lp#882877)
+ * bug fix: optimized SEARCH of vectors-on-vectors mishandled zero-length
+ sequences and :KEY NIL.
