+changes in sbcl-0.9.15 relative to sbcl-0.9.14:
+ * added support for the ucs-2 external format. (contributed by Ivan
+ Boldyrev)
+ * minor incompatible change: pretty printing of objects of type
+ (cons symbol) is, in the default pprint-dispatch-table, now
+ sensitive to whether the symbol satisfies FBOUNDP. (thanks to
+ Marcus Pearce)
+ * fixed bug: FILE-POSITION sometimes returned inconsistent results
+ for multibyte external-format streams. (thanks to "vbzoli")
+ * fixed bug: CHANGE-CLASS would fail to preserve the values of slots
+ with :ALLOCATION :CLASS inherited from superclasses of the
+ original class.
+
changes in sbcl-0.9.14 relative to sbcl-0.9.13:
+ * feature: thread support on Solaris/x86, and experimental thread support
+ on OS X/x86.
+ * feature: SBCL now tries to signal a STORAGE-CONDITION when running out
+ of heap.
+ * feature: SBCL now provides USE-VALUE and STORE-VALUE restarts in the
+ default method for SLOT-UNBOUND.
* minor incompatible change: prevent the user from specializing the
new-value argument to SB-MOP:SLOT-VALUE-USING-CLASS. It's
somewhat counter to the intent of the protocol, I (CSR) think, and
additionally it just doesn't work in SBCL as currently
implemented, thanks to optimizations (that are always valid for
the other three SLOT-VALUEish functions, but not for the setter).
+ * minor incompatible change: the :SB-LDB feature is now enabled by
+ default, and DISABLE-DEBUGGER and ENABLE-DEBUGGER also affect
+ the low-level debugger.
+ * enchancement: RUN-PROGRAM is now able to extract the file-descriptor
+ from SYNONYM-STREAM and TWO-WAY-STEAMS provided they can be decomposed
+ down to an SB-SYS:FD-STREAM, allowing direct communication in
+ more cases. Temporary files and pipes are still used as a fallback
+ strategy.
+ * thread-safety: DECODE-UNIVERSAL-TIME & GET-DECODED-TIME depended
+ on the non-reentrant C functions localtime(3) and gmtime(3).
+ * bug fix: global optimization policy was not visible in LOCALLY and
+ MACROLET forms.
+ * bug fix: class objects can be used as specializers in methods.
+ (reported by Pascal Costanza)
+ * bug fix: native unparsing of pathnames with :DIRECTORY NIL failed
+ with a type error. (reported by blitz_ on #lisp)
* bug fix: unparsing logical pathnames with :NAME :WILD :TYPE NIL
failed with a type error. (reported by Pascal Bourguignon)
* bug fix: merging pathnames against defaults with :DIRECTORY
starting with '(:RELATIVE :BACK) should preserve the :BACK.
(reported by James Y Knight)
+ * bug fix: saving large (>2GB) cores on x86-64 now works
+ * bug fix: a x86-64 backend bug when compiling (setf aref) with a
+ constant index and a (simple-array (signed-byte 32)) array
+ * bug fix: NAME-CHAR on an invalid symbol no longer signals an
+ error (patch by Robert J. Macomber)
+ * feature: TIME now displays the amount of run-time spent in GC
+ * bug fix: The debugger now does a better job of respecting
+ (PUSH '(*PRINT-CIRCLE* . T) SB-DEBUG:*DEBUG-PRINT-VARIABLE-ALIST*)
+ when printing SB-DEBUG:*DEBUG-CONDITION*. (This is a debugger-only
+ workaround for bug 403.)
+ * bug fix: floating point exception handling now works on FreeBSD
+ (thanks to NIIMI Satoshi)
* fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
** MISC.641: LET-conversion were not supposed to work in late
compilation stages.
+ * improvements to the Win32/x86 port:
+ ** GET-INTERNAL-RUN-TIME implemented, thanks to Frank Buss.
+ ** improved SB-BSD-SOCKETS support, thanks to Timothy Ritchey.
changes in sbcl-0.9.13 relative to sbcl-0.9.12:
* new feature: source path information is generated for macro-expansion
