 changes in sbcl-1.0.13 relative to sbcl-1.0.12:
+  * minor incompatible change: RUN-PROGRAM now uses execvp(3) to find
+    an executable in the search path, and does so in the child
+    process's PATH.  The function FIND-EXECUTABLE-IN-SEARCH-PATH has
+    been removed; it can be found in the CVS history, for somebody who
+    needs that search behavior (see the manual).
   * minor incompatible change: compiler policy re. weakening type
     checks has changed: now type checks are weakened on if SAFETY < 2
     and SAFETY < SPEED.

     unparsing of directory pathnames as files. Analogously,
     SB-EXT:PARSE-NATIVE-NAMESTRING takes an AS-DIRECTORY, forcing a
     filename to parse into a directory pathname.
+  * enhancement: implicit generic function creation now signals a
+    specific style-warning IMPLICIT-GENERIC-FUNCTION-WARNING, which
+    users can bind handlers for and muffle around calls to LOAD.
   * enhancement: RUN-PROGRAM allows unicode arguments and environments
     to be used (using the default stream external format), and allows
     non-simple strings to be used. (thanks to Harald Hanche-Olsen)
