+changes in sbcl-1.0.20 relative to 1.0.19:
+ * bug fix: fixed #427: unused local aliens no longer cause compiler
+ breakage. (reported by Stelian Ionescu, Andy Hefner and Stanislaw
+ Halik)
+ * bug fix: non-local exit from a WITH-ALIEN form no longer causes
+ alien-stack leakage. (reported by Andy Hefner)
+ * bug fix: PROGV signals an error when an attempt to violate declared
+ type of a variable or bind a constant is made.
+ * bug fix: SET signals an error when an attempt to violate declared
+ type of a variable is made.
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.19 relative to 1.0.18:
+ * new feature: user-customizable variable SB-EXT:*MUFFLED-WARNINGS*;
+ warnings that go otherwise unhandled will be muffled if they are
+ 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)
+ * bug fix: compiler no longer makes erronous assumptions in the
+ 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
+ Win64. (thanks for John Connors)
+ * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
+ ** interval arithmetic during type derivation used inexact integer
+ 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
+ containing invalid type specifiers.
+ ** ADJOIN with constant NIL as second argument works correctly.
+ ** FUNCTION-KEYWORDS was called SB-PCL::FUNCTION-KEYWORD-PARAMETERS.
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.18 relative to 1.0.17:
+ * minor incompatible change: SB-SPROF:WITH-PROFILING now by default
+ profiles only the current thread.
+ * minor incompatible change: changes to SYMBOL-VALUE of constants
+ defined with DEFCONSTANT now signal an error.
+ * enhancement: SB-SPROF now has support for wallclock profiling,
+ 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
+ (generally on x86 and x86-64, in some cases on other platforms
+ as well.)
+ * optimization: simple uses of HANDLER-CASE and HANDLER-BIND no
+ longer cons.
+ * optimization: file compiler is now able to coalesce non-circular
+ lists, non-base strings, and bit-vectors. Additionally, constants
+ are never referenced through SYMBOL-VALUE at runtime.
+ * optimization: code defining methods on PRINT-OBJECT (and other
+ generic functions in the COMMON-LISP package) now loads faster.
+ * bug fix: EAI_NODATA is deprecated since RFC 3493. Stop using it
+ in sb-bsd-sockets.
+ * bug fix: if COMPILE-FILE aborts due to an unwind, the partial
+ fasl is now deleted. (reported by Attila Lendvai)
+ * bug fix: READ-LINE always returned NIL for the last line in files.
+ (reported by Yoshinori Tahara)
+ * bug fix: more accurate disassembly annotations of foreign function
+ calls. (thanks to Andy Hefner)
+ * bug fix: trimming non-simple strings and non-string string
+ designators when the there is nothing to trim works properly.
+ (thanks to James Knight)
+ * new feature: SB-POSIX bindings for mlockall, munlockall, and setsid.
+ (thanks to Travis Cross)
+ * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
+ ** NIL is a valid function name (regression at 1.0.13.38)
+ ** 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
+ for real and GC times, microseconds for everything else.)
+ ** processor cycle counts on x86 and x86-64.
+ ** interpreted forms are counted for both evaluator modes.
+ ** number of lambdas converted by the compiler is reported.
+ ** CPU percentage report (computed from real and total run time.)
+ ** more comprehensive run time reporting, using a condenced format
+ ** interperted form, lambda, and page fault counts are omitted
+ when zero.
+ * 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: SB-FLUID build feature no longer breaks the build. (thanks
+ to Sidney Markowitz)
+ * bug fix: UNION and NUNION work with :TEST-NOT once more,
+ regression since 1.0.9.1. (thanks to Eric Marsden)
+ * bug fix: result of MAKE-ARRAY can be stack allocated - regression
+ 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.
+ * 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)
+ * bug fix: the fopcompiler can handle LOCALLY forms (with no
+ declarations) successfully. (reported by Attila Lendvai)
+
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.
