+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.
+ * optimization: ADJOIN and PUSHNEW are upto ~70% faster in normal
+ SPEED policies.
+ * optimization: APPEND is upto ~10% faster in normal SPEED policies.
+ * optimization: two argument forms of LAST are upto ~10% faster
+ in normal SPEED policies.
+ * optimization: NCONC no longer needs to heap cons its &REST list
+ in normal SPEED policies.
+ * bug fix: result of MAKE-ARRAY can be stack allocated - regression
+ since 1.0.15.36. (thanks to Paul Khuong)
+ * bug fix: bogus errors when generating certain code sequences, due
+ to the compiler not accepting ANY-REG for primitive type T on x86
+ and x86-64. (reported by Stelian Ionescu.)
+ * 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.
+ * bug fix: more correct assembler syntax for GNU binutils
+ 2.18.50.0.4 support. (thanks to Marijn Schouten)
+ * bug fix: fix ECASE warnings from CMUCL-as-xc-host. (reported by
+ Andreas Franke)
+
changes in sbcl-1.0.16 relative to 1.0.15:
+ * minor incompatible change: revert the changes to sb-posix's error
+ signaling added in 1.0.14.
+ * minor incompatible change: change PROBE-FILE back to returning
+ NIL whenever we can't get a truename, as was the case before 1.0.14.
+ * minor incompatible change: SB-BSD-SOCKETS:NAME-SERVICE-ERROR now
+ inherits from ERROR instead of just CONDITION.
+ * new feature: SB-INTROSPECT can provide source locations for instances
+ as well. (thanks to Tobian Ritterweiler)
+ * optimization: binding special variables now generates smaller code
+ on threaded platforms.
+ * optimization: MEMBER and ASSOC are over 50% faster for :TEST #'EQ
+ and cases where no :TEST is given but the compiler can infer that
+ the element to search is of type (OR FIXNUM (NOT NUMBER)).
+ * 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
+ Francois-Rene Rideau)
+ * bug fix: FIND-CLASS was not thread-safe. (reported by Attila Lendvai)
+ * 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.
+ * bug fix: don't reschedule timers for dead threads.
+ * bug fix: periodic polling was broken. (thanks to Espen S Johnsen)
+ * bug fix: copying output from RUN-PROGRAM to a stream signalled
+ bogus errors if select() was interrupted.
* enhancement: add support for fcntl's struct flock to SB-POSIX.
