   * new feature: on platforms where "dladdr" is available foreign
     function names now appear in backtraces.  (based on Helmut Eller's
     work for CMUCL)
-  * documentation: networking interface SB-BSD-SOCKETS' documentation
-    has been integrated into the user manual.
+  * documentation: documentation for SB-BSD-SOCKETS, SB-GRAY,

+    manual. 
+  * documentation: ASDF manual is now distributed with SBCL.
   * bug fix: SBCL can now load its contributed modules with REQUIRE
     even if the system-provided entries have been removed from
     ASDF:*CENTRAL-REGISTRY*. Infinite recursion in REQUIRE is also

   * bug fix: pass the right initargs to :BEFORE or :AFTER methods on
     SHARED-INITIALIZE or INITIALIZE-INSTANCE in optimized
     MAKE-INSTANCE constructors.  (reported by Axel Schairer for cmucl)
+  * bug fix: pathnames with relative directory components can be
+    represented relative to default pathnames.
   * optimization: in taking the GCD of bignums, reduce the two bignums
     to approximately the same size (using Euclid's algorithm) before
     applying the more sophisticated binary GCD.  (thanks to Juho
     Snellman)
   * optimization: COUNT on bitvectors now operates word-at-a-time.
+  * optimization: ASH with a positive, but not necessarily constant,
+    (leftwards) shift, when in a modular context, is compiled to a
+    hardware shift.
   * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
     ** FORMAT variable parameters ("~V<char>") are defaulted properly
        if the corresponding argument is NIL.
