changes in sbcl-0.8.13 relative to sbcl-0.8.12:
* new feature: SB-PACKAGE-LOCKS. See the "Package Locks" section of
- the manual for details; add :SB-PACKAGE-LOCKS in
- customize-target-features.lisp to enable them.
+ the manual for details; for now, package locks can be disabled by
+ removing :SB-PACKAGE-LOCKS in customize-target-features.lisp, but
+ if no major problems are found then it is likely that they will be
+ compiled in unconditionally.
+ * major incompatible change: LOAD-FOREIGN and LOAD-1-FOREIGN are now
+ unsupported operators. To load a shared library into SBCL, use
+ SB-ALIEN:LOAD-SHARED-OBJECT. To load a non-shared object file,
+ link it into a shared library outside of SBCL and load it using
+ SB-ALIEN:LOAD-SHARED-OBJECT.
* minor incompatible change: as threatened around sbcl-0.8.0, the
home package of MOP-related symbols is now SB-MOP, not SB-PCL.
The symbols are also exported from SB-PCL for backwards
* fixed bug #334: programmatic addition of slots using specialized
methods on SB-MOP:COMPUTE-SLOTS works for :ALLOCATION :INSTANCE
and :ALLOCATION :CLASS slots.
+ * fixed bug #269: SCALE-FLOAT scales floats by any integer, not just
+ float exponents. (rereported by Peter Seibel)
* fixed a bug: #\Space (and other whitespace characters) are no
longer considered to be macro characters in standard syntax by
GET-MACRO-CHARACTER.
* fixed bug: it is now possible to have slots such that
SB-MOP:SLOT-DEFINITION-ALLOCATION of the effective slot
description is neither :INSTANCE nor :CLASS.
+ * fixed bug: the ctor optimization of MAKE-INSTANCE now respects
+ user-defined methods on SLOT-BOUNDP-USING-CLASS and (SETF
+ SLOT-VALUE-USING-CLASS), and no longer causes errors with
+ non-standard SLOT-DEFINITION-ALLOCATION values.
+ * optimization: improved performance of BIT and SBIT on bit-vectors.
