* optimization: the hash algorithm for strings has changed to one
that is less vulnerable to spurious collisions. (thanks to Juho
Snellman)
+ * optimization: VECTOR-POP, VECTOR-PUSH-EXTEND and REPLACE do less
+ needless bounds checking. (thanks to Juho Snellman)
* optimization: implemented multiplication as a modular
(UNSIGNED-BYTE 32) operation on the PPC backend.
* fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
constitute a word.
** Printing the "Space" character with escaping on now yields "#\\ ",
rather than "#\\Space", as mandated by ANSI 22.1.3.2.
+ ** Reading floating-point numbers with *READ-BASE* set to a number
+ less than 10 works correctly.
+ ** Reading floating-point numbers with *READ-BASE* set to a number
+ more than 10 works correctly.
+ ** Printing with *PRINT-READABLY* targets the standard readtable, not
+ the readtable currently in effect.

+changes in sbcl-0.8.10 relative to sbcl-0.8.9:
+ * bug fix: compiler emitted division in optimized DEREF. (thanks for
+ the test case to Dave Roberts)
planned incompatible changes in 0.8.x:
* (not done yet, but planned:) When the profiling interface settles
