* improvement: stack allocation is should now be possible in all nested
inlining cases: failure to stack allocate when equivalent code is manually
open coded is now considered a bug.
+ * improvement: the Unicode character database has been upgraded to the
+ Unicode 5.1 standard, giving names and properties to a number of new
+ characters, and providing a few extra characters with case
+ transformations.
+ * improvement: the system now recognizes and produces names for Unicode
+ Hangul syllable characters.
* new feature: experimental :EMIT-CFASL parameter to COMPILE-FILE can
be used to output toplevel compile-time effects into a separate .CFASL
file.
+ * optimization: COERCE to VECTOR, STRING, SIMPLE-STRING and recognizable
+ one-dimenstional subtypes of ARRAY is upto 70% faster when the coercion is
+ actually needed.
+ * optimization: TRUNCATE on known single- and double-floats is upto 25%
+ faster.
* optimization: division of floating point numbers by constants uses
multiplication by reciprocal when an exact reciprocal exists.
* optimization: multiplication of single- and double-floats floats by
constant two has been optimized.
+ * optimization: ARRAY-IN-BOUNDS-P is resolved at compile-time when
+ sufficient type information is available. (thanks to Leslie Polzer)
+ * optimization: SLOT-VALUE and (SETF SLOT-VALUE) with constant slot names on
+ known structure objects are as efficient as defstruct generated accessors.
+ * optimization: unused vector creation can now be optimized away.
+ * improvement: ASDF systems can now depends on SB-INTROSPECT.
+ * improvement: a STYLE-WARNING is signalled when a generic function
+ clobbers an earlier FTYPE proclamation.
+ * improvement: the compiler is able to track the effective type of
+ generic function across method addition and removal even in the
+ absence of an explicit DEFGENERIC.
+ * improvement: DESCRIBE now reports on symbols naming undefined
+ but assumed or declared function as well.
+ * improvement: recompilation of systems using SB-GROVEL now works
+ (thanks to Leslie Polzer)
+ * improvements to SB-CLTL2 (thanks to Larry D'Anna):
+ ** functions DECLARATION-INFORMATION, PARSE-MACRO, and ENCLOSE have been
+ documented.
+ ** AUGMENT-ENVIRONMENT and DEFINE-DECLARATION have been implemented.
+ ** DECLARATION-INFORMATION now supports declaration name DECLARATION as
+ well as user defined declaration names.
+ ** VARIABLE-INFORMATION is now aware of alien variables.
+ * improvement: improved address space layout on OpenBSD (thanks to Josh
+ Elsasser)
+ * improvement: pretty-printing of various Lisp forms has been improved
+ (thanks to Tobias Rittweiler)
+ * bug fix: a failing AVER in CONVERT-MV-CALL has been fixed. (thanks to
+ Larry D'Anna)
+ * bug fix: a failing AVER in %ALLOCATE-CLOSURES conversion has been fixed
+ (thanks to Larry D'Anna)
+ * bug fix: SLEEP supports times over 100 million seconds on long on OpenBSD
+ as well. (reported by Josh Elsasser)
+ * bug fix: DELETE-FILE on streams no longer closes the stream with :ABORT T,
+ leading to possible attempts to delete the same file twice. See docstring
+ on DELETE-FILE for details. (reported by John Fremlin)
+ * bug fix: the low-level debugger had 32-bit assumptions and was missing
+ information about some array types. (thanks to Luis Oliveira)
* bug fix: moderately complex combinations of inline expansions could
be miscompiled if the result was declared to be dynamic extent.
* bug fix: in some cases no compiler note about failure to stack allocate
allocation could cause objects users might reasonably expect to
be heap allocated to be stack allocated.
* bug fix: DESCRIBE signalled an error for generic functions under
- certain circumstances. (reported by Leslie Polzer)
+ certain circumstances. (thanks to Leslie Polzer)
+ * bug fix: Fixed spelling of an error message.
