+changes in sbcl-0.8.16 relative to sbcl-0.8.15:
+ * bug fix: read-write consistency on streams of element-type
+ (SIGNED-BYTE N) for N > 32. (reported by Bruno Haible for CMUCL)
+ * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
+ ** POSITION on displaced vectors with non-zero displacement
+ returns the right answer.
+ ** (SIGNED-BYTE) is a valid type specifier for sequence creators.
+
+changes in sbcl-0.8.15 relative to sbcl-0.8.14:
+ * incompatible change: SB-INT:*BEFORE-SAVE-INITIALIZATIONS* and
+ SB-INT:*AFTER-SAVE-INITIALIZATIONS* have been renamed
+ SB-EXT:*SAVE-HOOKS* and SB-EXT:*INIT-HOOKS*, and are now part of
+ the supported interface.
+ * new feature: Single-stepping of code compiled with DEBUG 2 or
+ higher and (> DEBUG (MAX SPACE SPEED)) is now possible.
+ * new feature: saving cores with foreign code loaded is now
+ supported on x86/FreeBSD, x86/Linux, and sparc/SunOS. (based on
+ Timothy Moore's work for CMUCL)
+ * bug fix: DEFTYPE lambda-list parsing now binds unsupplied keyword
+ parameters to * instead of NIL if no initform is supplied.
+ (reported by Johan Bockgaard)
+ * bug fix: DEFINE-COMPILER-MACRO lambda-list parsing now binds
+ correctly when FUNCALL appears as the car of the form. Note:
+ despite this FUNCALL forms are not currently subject to
+ compiler-macro expansion. (port of Raymond Toy's fix for the
+ same from CMUCL, reported by Johan Bockgaard)
+ * bug fix: FOR ... ON ... -clauses in LOOP now work on dotted lists
+ (thanks for Teemu Kalvas)
+ * bug fix: in FORMAT ~^ inside ~:{ now correctly steps to the next
+ case instead of terminating the iteration (thanks for Julian
+ Squires, Sean Champ and Raymond Toy)
+ * bug fix: incorrect expansion of defgeneric that caused a style
+ warning. (thanks for Zach Beane)
+ * bug fix: slot accessor effective method computation works properly
+ for classes with multiple non-standard applicable methods on
+ SB-MOP:SLOT-VALUE-USING-CLASS. (reported by Ralf Mattes)
+ * on x86 compiler supports stack allocation of results of LIST and
+ LIST*, bound to variables, declared DYNAMIC-EXTENT. (based on
+ CMUCL implementation by Gerd Moellmann)
+ * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
+ ** FORMAT strings with both the ~<~:;~> form of the justification
+ directive and pretty-printing directives cause an error.

changes in sbcl-0.8.14 relative to sbcl-0.8.13:
* incompatible change: the internal functions
SB-KERNEL:32BIT-LOGICAL-FOO, intended for providing efficient
work for CMUCL)
* documentation: documentation for SB-BSD-SOCKETS, SB-GRAY,
SB-SIMPLE-STREAMS, and SB-PROFILE have been integrated into the user
- manual.
- has been integrated into the user manual.
+ manual.
+ * documentation: ASDF manual is now distributed with SBCL.
* bug fix: SBCL can now load its contributed modules with REQUIRE
even if the system-provided entries have been removed from
ASDF:*CENTRAL-REGISTRY*. Infinite recursion in REQUIRE is also
* bug fix: pass the right initargs to :BEFORE or :AFTER methods on
SHARED-INITIALIZE or INITIALIZE-INSTANCE in optimized
MAKE-INSTANCE constructors. (reported by Axel Schairer for cmucl)
+ * bug fix: pathnames with relative directory components can be
+ represented relative to default pathnames.
* optimization: in taking the GCD of bignums, reduce the two bignums
to approximately the same size (using Euclid's algorithm) before
applying the more sophisticated binary GCD. (thanks to Juho
