+changes in sbcl-1.0.22 relative to 1.0.21:
+ * bug fix: ADJUST-ARRAY on multidimensional arrays used bogusly give
+ them a fill pointer unless :DISPLACED-TO or :INITIAL-CONTENTS were
+ provided. (reported by Cedric St-Jean)
+ * bug fix: circularity handling in the reader did not treat raw
+ structure slots correctly. (reported by Cedric St-Jean)

+ appropriately typed structure slots without locking.
+ * new feature: SB-EXT:CALL-WITH-TIMING provides access to timing
+ information like those gathered by TIME using a programming-friendly
+ interface.
+ * new feature: TIME reports time taken even if the form performs a

+ given mixed integer and double-float arguments, leading to better
+ precision. (reported by Bob Felts)
+ * bug fix: LOG with base zero returned values of inconsistent type.
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.20 relative to 1.0.19:
+ * minor incompatible change: OPTIMIZE qualities
+ SB-C::STACK-ALLOCATE-DYNAMIC-EXTENT, SB-C::STACK-ALLOCATE-VECTOR,
+ and SB-C::STACK-ALLOCATE-VALUE-CELLS no longer exist. See documentation
+ and SB-EXT:*STACK-ALLOCATE-DYNAMIC-EXTENT* for details.
+ * documentation: some slot access efficiency guidelines have been
+ added to the user manual.
+ * optimization: ASSOC-IF, ASSOC-IF-NOT, MEMBER-IF, MEMBER-IF-NOT,
+ RASSOC, RASSOC-IF, and RASSOC-IF-NOT are now equally efficient

+ argument, and one or more &KEY arguments at the call site.
+ * bug fix: STYLE-WARNINGs for functions with both &OPTIONAL and &KEY
+ arguments appeared at call sites as well.
+ * bug fix: fixed #425; CLOSE drops input buffers from streams, so
+ READ-LINE &co can no longer read from them afterwards. (reported

+changes in sbcl-1.0.19 relative to 1.0.18:
+ * new feature: user-customizable variable SB-EXT:*MUFFLED-WARNINGS*;

+ of the type that's the value of this variable.
+ * optimization: stack allocation is slightly more efficient on x86
+ and x86-64.
+ * bug fix: DEFSTRUCT forms with user-specified :CONSTRUCTOR options,
+ where a raw slot always is initialized using the initform whose
+ type is not know sufficiently well a compile-time are now compiled
+ correctly. (reported by John Morrison)

+ presense of non-foldable SATISFIES types.
+ * bug fix: stack analysis missed cleanups of dynamic-extent
+ arguments in non-let-converted calls to local functions.
+ * improvements to the Windows port:
+ ** adjusted address spaces for building on both Win32 and

+ to single-float coercions.
+ ** arithmetic operations involving large integers and single
+ floats give the same results in compiled and interpreted code.
+ ** deriving the result type of COERCE no longer signals an error
+ if the derived type of the second argument is a MEMBER type

+ and is also able to profile specific threads. REPORT output
+ has also additional sorting options.
+ * enhancement: better pretty-printing of DEFPACKAGE forms. (Thanks
+ to Michael Weber)
+ * optimization: structure allocation has been improved
+ ** constructors created by non-toplevel DEFSTRUCTs are ~40% faster.
+ ** out of line constructors are ~10% faster.
+ ** inline constructors are ~15% faster.
+ ** inline constructors are capable of dynamic extent allocation

+ as well.)
+ * optimization: simple uses of HANDLER-CASE and HANDLER-BIND no
+ longer cons.
+ * optimization: file compiler is now able to coalesce non-circular

+ ** FILL on lists was missing its return value (regression at 1.0.12.27)
+ ** STRING-TRIM, STRING-LEFT-TRIM, and STRING-RIGHT-TRIM did not respect
+ fill pointers properly (regression at 1.0.12.23)
+ ** STRING-TRIM, STRING-LEFT-TRIM, and STRING-RIGHT-TRIM did not respect
+ displacement indices properly (regression at 1.0.12.23)
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.17 relative to 1.0.16:
+ * temporary regression: user code can no longer allocate closure
+ variable storage on stack, due to bug 419 without explicitly
+ requesting it. Please consult sbcl-devel for advice if you need to
+ use this feature in the meanwhile.
+ * new feature: runtime argument --control-stack-size can be used to
+ adjust thread default control stack size.
+ * enhancement: improved TIME output
+ ** all times are reported using the measured accuracy (milliseconds

+ since 1.0.15.36. (thanks to Paul Khuong)
+ * bug fix: LAST when always returned the whole list when given a bignum
+ as the second argument.
+ * bug fix: dynamic extent allocation of nested lists and vectors
+ could leak to otherwise accessible parts.
+ * bug fix: invalid optimization of heap-allocated alien variable
+ reference.
+ * bug fix: fasl header checking is less vulnerable to different
+ platform word lengths.

+ * optimization: better LOGNOT on fixnums.
+ * optimization: modular arithmetic for a particular requested width
+ is implemented using a tagged representation unless a better
+ representation is available.
+ * fixed bug 423: TRULY-THE and *CHECK-CONSISTENCY* interaction.
+ * bug fix: SB-BSD-SOCKETS:MAKE-INET-ADDRESS checks the input string
+ for wellformedness and returns a specialized vector. (reported by

+ * bug fix: ~R was broken for vigtillions. (thanks to Luis Oliveira)
+ * bug fix: attempt to obtain *SCHEDULER-LOCK* recursively when
+ unscheduling timer at the same time as another timer fires.

full address of the object, and none of the tag bits.
* bug fix: readably printing hash-tables now respects other printer
* bug fix: the CTOR optimization for MAKE-INSTANCE should no longer
create obsolete instances in the case of redefinition or
obsoletion of a superclass. (thanks to Andy Hefner)
+ * bug fix: Support for the Alpha architecture has been revived; it had
