+changes in sbcl-0.8.2 relative to sbcl-0.8.1:
* fixed bug 148: failure to inline-expand a local function left
garbage, confusing the compiler.
* fixed bugs 3cd: structure slot readers perform type check if the
* bug fix: the compiler now traps array references to elements off
the end of an array; previously, the bounds checking in some
circumstances could go off-by-one.
+ * improved MACHINE-VERSION, especially on Linux (thanks to Lars
+ Brinkhoff)
+ * type declarations for array element types now obey the description
+ on the CLHS page "Declaration TYPE", as per discussions on
+ sbcl-help around 2003-05-08. This means that a declaration
+ (TYPE (ARRAY FOO) BAR) means that, within the scope of the
+ declaration, all references to BAR will be asserted or assumed
+ (with THE, so dependent on compiler policy) to involve objects of
+ type FOO. Note that no such declaration is implied in
+ (MAKE-ARRAY .. :ELEMENT-TYPE 'FOO).
+ * declared types of functions from the "Conditions"
+ chapter. (reported by Paul Dietz)
+ * bug fix: CERROR accepts a function as its first argument.
+ * bug fix: NTH an NTHCDR accept a bignum as index
+ arguments. (reported by Adam Warner)
+ * optimization: character compare routines now optimize comparing
+ against a constant character. (reported by Gilbert Baumann)
+ * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
+ ** LAST and [N]BUTLAST should accept a bignum.
planned incompatible changes in 0.8.x:
