** Users can now defined new places usable with SB-EXT:COMPARE-AND-SWAP
using an API anologous to defining new SETFable places.
- * enchancement: on CHENEYGC targets, SB-KERNEL:MAKE-LISP-OBJ now does
+ * enhancement: debug-names of anonymous and local function are more
+ descriptive. Affects backtraces and SB-SPROF results. (lp#805100)
+ * enhancement: on GENCGC systems nursery and generation sizes now default to
+ 5% of dynamic-space size.
+ * enhancement: on CHENEYGC targets, SB-KERNEL:MAKE-LISP-OBJ now does
the same validation of pointer objects as GENCGC does, instead of a
comparatively weak bounds-check against the heap spaces.
* enhancement: on win32, ABS of complex floats guards better against
overflows. (lp#888410)
* enhancement: RUN-PROGRAM now distinguishes exec() failing from child
process exiting with code 1. (lp#676987)
+ * enhancement: convenience function SET-SBCL-SOURCE-LOCATION for informing
+ the system where on the filesystem the SBCL sources themselves are
+ located. (Thanks to Zach Beane)
* bug fix: on 64-bit targets, atomic-incf/aref does index computation
correctly, even on wide-fixnum builds. (lp#887220)
* bug fix: (directory "foo/*/*.*") did not follow symlinks in foo/ that
safe outside systems with getaddrinfo().
* bug fix: on 64-bit systems setting the nursery size above 4Gb now works.
(lp#870868)
+ * bug fix: With several combinations of argument types, for example (EXPT
+ <integer> <(complex double)>), EXPT now uses double-precision throughout
+ instead of partially calculating only to single-precision. (lp#741564;
+ thanks to Lutz Euler)
changes in sbcl-1.0.53 relative to sbcl-1.0.52:
* enhancement: on 64-bit targets, in src/compiler/generic/early-vm.lisp,
