+  * optimization: multidimensional array accesses in the absence of type
+    information regarding array rank are approximately 10% faster due to
+    open coding of ARRAY-RANK.
+  * bug fix: disable address space randomization Linux/x86-64 as well,
+    not just x86-64. (reported by Ken Olum)
+  * bug fix: #201; type inference for CONS and ARRAY types could derive
+    wrong results in the presence of eg. RPLACA or ADJUST-ARRAY.
+  * bug fix: special variables with a proclaimed specific subtype of FUNCTION
+    could not be assigned to or bound with PROGV. (reported by Lorenz
+    Mösenlechner)

 changes in sbcl-1.0.28 relative to 1.0.27:
+  * a number of bugs in cross-compilation have been fixed, with the ultimate
+    result that building under (at least) clisp should be much more reliable.
   * minor incompatible changes: echo-streams now propagate unread-char to the
     underlying input stream, and no longer permit unreading more than one
     character.
