then requesting a BACKTRACE at the debugger prompt gives no information
about where in the user program the problem occurred.
+ (this is apparently mostly fixed on the SPARC and PPC architectures:

Using the pretty-printer from the command prompt gives funny
results, apparently because the pretty-printer doesn't know
method is applicable, and yet matches neither of the method group
qualifier patterns.

it; this time around (before sbcl-0.8.13 release) I (WHN) just
commented out the SB!VM:MEMORY-USAGE calls until someone figures
out how to make them work reliably with the rest of the GC.

+345: backtrace on x86 undefined function
+ In sbcl-0.8.13 (and probably earlier versions), code of the form
+ (flet ((test () (#:undefined-fun 42)))
+ (funcall #'test))
+ yields the debugger with a poorly-functioning backtrace. Brian
+ Downing fixed most of the problems on non-x86 architectures, but on
+ the x86 the backtrace from this evaluation does not reveal anything
+ about the problem. (See tests in debug.impure.lisp)
+
+346: alpha backtrace
+ In sbcl-0.8.13, all backtraces from errors caused by internal errors
+ on the alpha seem to have a "bogus stack frame".
+
+347: FUNCALL forms and compiler-macros
+ (reported by Johan Bockgård on #lisp)
+ The example
+ (funcall (compiler-macro-function 'square) '(funcall #'square x) nil)
+ => (EXPT X 2)
+ from CLHS entry for DEFINE-COMPILER-MACRO fails in 0.8.13.41 with an
+ error. Fixed in CMUCL 19a.
