+changes in sbcl-0.9.17 (0.9.99?) relative to sbcl-0.9.16:
+ * incompatible change: SB-EXT package no longer contains the
+ following unused symbols: *GC-NOTIFY-AFTER*, *GC-NOTIFY-BEFORE*,
+ *GC-NOTIFY-STREAM*, *ERROR-PRINT-LENGTH*, *ERROR-PRINT-LEVEL*,
+ *ERROR-PRINT-LINES*
+ * minor incompatible change: the direct superclasses of
+ SB-MOP:FUNCALLABLE-STANDARD-OBJECT are (FUNCTION STANDARD-OBJECT),
+ not (STANDARD-OBJECT FUNCTION). This makes the
+ class-precedence-lists of GENERIC-FUNCTION and
+ STANDARD-GENERIC-FUNCTION comply with the requirement of ANSI
+ 1.4.4.5.
+ * bug fix: ENOUGH-NAMESTRING on pathnames with no name and a pattern
+ for a type now works.
+ * bug fix: loading of default sysinit file works. (thanks to Leonid
+ Slobodov)
+ * bug fix: better detection of circularities in the file-compiler.
+ (reported by Marco Monteiro)
+
+changes in sbcl-0.9.16 relative to sbcl-0.9.15:
+ * feature: implemented the READER-METHOD-CLASS and
+ WRITER-METHOD-CLASS portion of the Class Initialization Protocol
+ as specified by AMOP.
+ * incompatible change: variable SB-EXT:*USE-IMPLEMENTATION-TYPES*
+ no longer exists.
+ * optimization: faster LOGCOUNT implementation on x86 and x86-64
+ (thanks to Lutz Euler)
+ * optimization: hashing of general arrays and vectors has been
+ improved. (reported by Any Fingerhut)
+ * enhancement: SB-INTROSPECT is now able to find definitions of
+ profiled functions. (thanks to Troels Henriksen)
+ * enhancement: compiler-macro expansion applies now to FUNCALL forms
+ as well, allowing compiler-macros for SETF-functions to expand.
+ * enhancement: step-instrumentation no longer wraps known
+ single-value functions with multiple-value context, allowing
+ better type inference.
+ * fixed bug #337: use of MAKE-METHOD in method combination now works
+ even in the presence of user-defined method classes. (reported by
+ Bruno Haible and Pascal Costanza)
+ * fixed bug #339(c): if there are applicable methods not part of any
+ long-form method-combination group, call INVALID-METHOD-ERROR.
+ (reported by Bruno Haible)
+ * fixed bug #361: the :FUNCTION initarg in the protocol for
+ initialization of methods can now be used to override
+ internally-produced optimized functions. (reported by Bruno
+ Haible)
+ * bug fix: extensions of MAKE-METHOD-LAMBDA which wrap the
+ system-provided lambda expression no longer cause warnings about
+ unbound #:|pv-table| symbols.
+ * bug fix: improved the handling of type declarations and the
+ detection of violations for keyword arguments with non-constant
+ defaults.
+ * bug fix: potentially erronous calls to PATHNAME and
+ MERGE-PATHNAMES were being flushed in some cases.
+ (reported by Richard Kreuter)
+ * bug fix: compiled calls to TYPEP were mishandling obsolete
+ instances. (reported by James Bielman and Attila Lendvai)
+ * bug fix: format strings with ~> without matching ~< no longer
+ trigger an AVER, but signal an understandable error instead.
+ (reported by Antonio Martinez)
+ * bug fix: specifying an output-file without a pathname-type for
+ COMPILE-FILE or COMPILE-FILE-PATHNAME resulted in using the type
+ of input-file instead of "fasl". (reported by Robert Dodier)
+ * bug fix: compiler-macro lambda-list parsing of FUNCALL forms.
+ (reported by James Y Knight).
+ * bug fix: compiler-macros-function did not consider the environment
+ argument for shadowing by local functions.
+ * bug fix: compiler-macros expansion was inhibited by local INLINE
+ declarations.
+ * bug fix: inline expansions of known functions were subject to
+ step-instrumentation in high debug policies, leading to problems
+ with type-inference.
+ * bug fix: compiler failed to differentiate between different CONS
+ types in some cases.
+ * bug fix: fixed input, output and error redirection in RUN-PROGRAM
+ for win32. (thanks to Mike Thomas and Yaroslav Kavenchuk)
+ * bug fix: #368: incorrect use of expressed vs. upgraded array
+ element type.
+ * bug fix: #306a: more precise unions of array types.
+ * thread-safety improvements:
+ ** CONDITION-WAIT could return early on Linux, if the thread was
+ interrupted and subsequently continued with SIGCONT.
+ ** STABLE-SORT and ADJUST-ARRAY were not reentrant.
+
+changes in sbcl-0.9.15 relative to sbcl-0.9.14:
+ * added support for the ucs-2 external format. (contributed by Ivan
+ Boldyrev)
+ * minor incompatible change: pretty printing of objects of type
+ (cons symbol) is, in the default pprint-dispatch-table, now
+ sensitive to whether the symbol satisfies FBOUNDP. (thanks to
+ Marcus Pearce)
+ * minor incompatible change: SB-MOP:FINALIZE-INHERITANCE is now
+ called later in a class's lifetime, possibly as late as when the
+ first instance of the class is created. Previously,
+ SB-MOP:FINALIZE-INHERITANCE was called by the system as soon as a
+ class became finalizeable.
+ * fixed bug: FILE-POSITION sometimes returned inconsistent results
+ for multibyte external-format streams. (thanks to "vbzoli")
+ * fixed bug: CHANGE-CLASS would fail to preserve the values of slots
+ with :ALLOCATION :CLASS inherited from superclasses of the
+ original class.
+ * fixed bug: anonymous classes can now be created using the :NAME
+ initarg and MAKE-INSTANCE / REINITIALIZE-INSTANCE, as specified by
+ AMOP. (reported by Leonid Slobodov on comp.lang.lisp)
+ * fixed bug: core-files saved with :EXECUTABLE T can again be
+ executed when SBCL_HOME isn't set. (reported by James Knight)
+ * fixed bug: toplevel LOCALLY forms with declarations could
+ occasionally get miscompiled. (reported by Yaroslav Kavenchuk)
+ * fixed bug: printing from several different threads using different
+ values of *print-case* could cause invalid output, due to
+ some internal special variables of the printer not being bound
+ thread-locally (reported by Max Mikhanosha)
+ * fixed bug: SPECIALIZER metaobjects (including anonymous classes
+ and EQL-SPECIALIZERs) can be used as specializers to DEFMETHOD.
+ (reported by Pascal Costanza)
+ * fixed bug: FINALIZE-INHERITANCE is called from
+ REINITIALIZE-INSTANCE on classes when the class has previously
+ been finalized, as required by AMOP.
+ * minor code generation optimizations:
+ ** better register allocation in CLOS dispatching functions
+ ** overflow detection when coercing signed bytes to fixnums on x86-64
+ ** is now implemented with one IMUL instruction instead of three shifts
+ ** more efficient bit-vector access on x86 and x86-64
+ ** more efficient access to raw structure slots on x86 and x86-64
+ * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
+ ** ENSURE-DIRECTORIES-EXIST.8: ENSURE-DIRECTORIES-EXIST must
+ return its argument.

changes in sbcl-0.9.14 relative to sbcl-0.9.13:
* feature: thread support on Solaris/x86, and experimental thread support
on OS X/x86.
* minor incompatible change: the :SB-LDB feature is now enabled by
default, and DISABLE-DEBUGGER and ENABLE-DEBUGGER also affect
the low-level debugger.
+ * enchancement: RUN-PROGRAM is now able to extract the file-descriptor
+ from SYNONYM-STREAM and TWO-WAY-STEAMS provided they can be decomposed
+ down to an SB-SYS:FD-STREAM, allowing direct communication in
+ more cases. Temporary files and pipes are still used as a fallback
+ strategy.
+ * thread-safety: DECODE-UNIVERSAL-TIME & GET-DECODED-TIME depended
+ on the non-reentrant C functions localtime(3) and gmtime(3).
+ * bug fix: global optimization policy was not visible in LOCALLY and
+ MACROLET forms.
* bug fix: class objects can be used as specializers in methods.
(reported by Pascal Costanza)
* bug fix: native unparsing of pathnames with :DIRECTORY NIL failed
* bug fix: merging pathnames against defaults with :DIRECTORY
starting with '(:RELATIVE :BACK) should preserve the :BACK.
(reported by James Y Knight)
- * improved SB-BSD-SOCKETS support on Windows. (thanks to Timothy
- Ritchey)
* bug fix: saving large (>2GB) cores on x86-64 now works
* bug fix: a x86-64 backend bug when compiling (setf aref) with a
constant index and a (simple-array (signed-byte 32)) array
* bug fix: NAME-CHAR on an invalid symbol no longer signals an
error (patch by Robert J. Macomber)
* feature: TIME now displays the amount of run-time spent in GC
- * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
- ** MISC.641: LET-conversion were not supposed to work in late
- compilation stages.
* bug fix: The debugger now does a better job of respecting
(PUSH '(*PRINT-CIRCLE* . T) SB-DEBUG:*DEBUG-PRINT-VARIABLE-ALIST*)
when printing SB-DEBUG:*DEBUG-CONDITION*. (This is a debugger-only
workaround for bug 403.)
+ * bug fix: floating point exception handling now works on FreeBSD
+ (thanks to NIIMI Satoshi)
+ * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
+ ** MISC.641: LET-conversion were not supposed to work in late
+ compilation stages.
+ * improvements to the Win32/x86 port:
+ ** GET-INTERNAL-RUN-TIME implemented, thanks to Frank Buss.
+ ** improved SB-BSD-SOCKETS support, thanks to Timothy Ritchey.
changes in sbcl-0.9.13 relative to sbcl-0.9.12:
