least permitted and maybe required by AMOP). As a consolation,
however, the SBCL implementation of these functions now calls
REINITIALIZE-INSTANCE as specified by AMOP.
+ * bug fix: slot-definition documentation is propagated as per ANSI
+ 7.6.2 to EFFECTIVE-SLOT-DEFINITIONS.
+ COMPUTE-EFFECTIVE-SLOT-DEFINITION now receives a :DOCUMENTATION
+ argument, as do eslotd initialization methods. (from Pascal
+ Costanza's "Closer" project)
* bug fix: REINITIALIZE-INSTANCE on generic functions calls
COMPUTE-DISCRIMINATING-FUNCTION (almost) unconditionally, as
specified by AMOP.
and Pascal Costanza)
* bug fix: *COMPILE-FILE-PATHNAME* now contains the user's pathname
merged with *DEFAULT-PATHNAME-DEFAULTS*.
+ * bug fix: callbacks on OS X now preserve stack-alignment.
+ (thanks to Cyrus Harmon)
* enhancement: the x86-64 disassembler is much better at
disassembling SSE instructions. (thanks to Lutz Euler)
+ * enhancement: CHECK-TYPE on a variable now allows type-inference
+ (thanks to Vincent Arkesteijn)
* optimization: improved performance of EUC-JP external format.
(thanks to NIIMI Satoshi)
* optimization: performance improvements to IO on file streams of
:ELEMENT-TYPE CHARACTER
* optimization: much faster memory allocation on x86-64
+ * optimization: faster garbage collections (latency and throughput)
+ on gencgc
+ * optimization: faster bignum subtraction and division on x86 and x86-64

changes in sbcl-0.9.6 relative to sbcl-0.9.5:
* bug fix: add a workaround to SBCL looping infinitely at startup on
(thanks to Richard Kreuter)
* bug fix: defining classes whose accessors are methods on existing
generic functions in other (locked) packages no longer signals
- bogus package lock violations. (reported by François-René Rideau)
+ bogus package lock violations. (reported by François-René Rideau)
* bug fix: special variables as DEFMETHOD parameters no longer have
associated bogus type declarations. (reported by David Wragg and
Bruno Haible)
