+changes relative to sbcl-1.0.46:
+ * bug fix: fix mach port rights leaks in mach exception handling code on
+ darwin/x86 and /x86-64. (thanks to Willem Oudshoorn for motivation and the

+ * bug fix: SB-DEBUG:BACKTRACE-AS-LIST guards against potentially leaking
+ stack-allocated values out of their dynamic-extent. (lp#310175)
+ * bug fix: attempts to use SB-SPROF for wallclock profiling on threaded
+ x86-64 builds caused a type-error.
+ * bug fix: calling COMPILE with something else than a lambda-expression as the
+ second argument reports a more sensible error. (lp#718905)
+ * bug fix: invalid combinations of :PREDICATE and :TYPE options in DEFSTRUCT
+ are detected. (lp#520607)
+ * bug fix: constant keyword argument checking didn't take :ALLOW-OTHER-KEYS
+ into account.
+ * bug fix: SLOT-BOUNDP information is correct during MAKE-INSTANCE in the

+ methods. (regression from 1.0.45.18)
+ * bug fix: INITIALIZE-INSTANCE :AROUND methods supplying initargs via
+ CALL-NEXT-METHOD work correctly. (regression from 1.0.45.19)
+ * bug fix: several foreign functions accepting string also accepted NIL and
+ consequently caused a memory fault at 0 now signal a type-error instead.
+ (lp#721087)
+ * bug fix: under rare circumstances, constraint propagation could rewrite a
+ variable reference to refer to a variable not in scope, causing an error
+ during physical environment analysis when attempting to close over the
+ variable. (lp#551227)
+ * bug fix: SIMPLE-CONDITION :FORMAT-CONTROL defaults to NIL.
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.46 relative to sbcl-1.0.45:

+ &co. (lp#718039)
+ * optimization: ERROR and CERROR are approximately 5 times faster.
+ * optimization: optimized constructors are used for MAKE-INSTANCE of classes
+ with applicable non-standard (SETF SLOT-VALUE-USING-CLASS),
+ SLOT-BOUNDP-USING-CLASS, and INITIALIZE-INSTANCE :AROUND methods, speeding
+ up instance creation in those cases.
+ * optimization: arithmetic operations with multiple constant arguments in now
+ have them reduced at compile-time. (lp#676414)
+ * optimization: determining current character position on string-streams for
+ pretty-printing was overly slow.
+ * bug fix: local tail calls to DYNAMIC-EXTENT functions can no longer cause
+ lifetime analysis to overwrite closed-over variables (lp#681092).
+ * bug fix: encoding errors from some multibyte external formats such as EUC-JP
+ were not handled correctly (lp#713063).
+ * bug fix: printing waitqueue objects without setting *PRINT-CIRCLE* to T is now
+ safe (lp#673630).

+ unintern the wrong symbol with the same name. (lp#693796)
+ * bug fix: COPY-PPRINT-DISPATCH always has access to a pristine table,
+ making it possible to restore the initial table if it has been messed up.
+ (lp#678409)

+ * enhancement: ~/ and ~user/ are treated specially in pathnames.
+ Refer to documentation for details.
+ * enhancement: ASDF has been updated to version 2.010.
+ * optimization: mutated closed-over variables that are only accessed by
+ DYNAMIC-EXTENT closures (currently only FLET and LABELS functions
+ declared to be DYNAMIC-EXTENT) are stored directly in their containing
+ stack frame, rather than allocating a VALUE-CELL (lp#586103).
+ * optimization: UNWIND-PROTECT cleanup functions are now declared
+ DYNAMIC-EXTENT.
+ * bug fix: backtracing function with &REST arguments now shows the full
+ argument list. (lp#310173)
+ * bug fix: return types for functions with complex lambda-lists are now
+ derived properly (lp#384892)
+ * bug fix: when SPEED > SPACE compiling CONCATENATE 'STRING with constant
+ long string arguments slowed the compiler down to a crawl.
+ * bug fix: closure VALUE-CELLs are no longer stack-allocated (lp#308934).
+ * bug fix: non-standard MAKE-METHOD-LAMBDA methods could break RETURN-FROM

+ signalling a full warning about violated proclaimed FTYPEs and violations
+ of derived FTYPEs within the same file, including self-calls.
+ * enhancement: new function: SB-EXT:DELETE-DIRECTORY is now provided.
+ * optimization: constant-folding exploits numeric and character types, in
+ addition member types.
+ * optimization: numeric, character and member types that are inhabited by
+ exactly one value are tested with EQL.
+ * optimization: more conditional branches are eliminated during IR1.
+ Branches are simplified before performing if/if-conversion, and simple
+ equivalent branches (that only read the same constant or variable) are
+ merged.
+ * improvements to the Windows port:
+ ** change: canonical unparsing form for pathname namestrings now uses / as
+ directory separator. NATIVE-NAMESTRING still uses \ as the separator.

+ * bug fix: (THE (VALUES ...)) in LOAD-TIME-VALUE caused a compiler-error.
+ (lp#646796)
+ * bug fix: interrupts arriving during CL:OPEN caused an error.
+ * bug fix: overeager character buffering could cause input to block
+ spuriously when reading from a pipe (lp#643686)
+ * bug fix: more efficient timer expiry should avoid starvation on systems
+ where number of SIGALRMs per second is restricted. (lp#375515)
+ * bug fix: non-unicode builds no longer fail (broken since 1.0.36.15).

+ an error for eg. STRUCTURE. (lp#458015)
+ * bug fix: LOOP WITH NIL = ... signalled an unused variable style-warning.
+ (lp#613871, thanks to Roman Marynchak)
+ * bug fix: more reliable &REST list type derivation. (lp#655203)
+ * bug fix: PPRINT-LOGICAL-BLOCK multiply-evaluated :PER-LINE-PREFIX,
+ and issued pointles code-deletion notes for it, :PREFIX, and :SUFFIX.
+ * bug fix: the compiler didn't utilize the proclaimed ftype for functions
+ also declared NOTINLINE. (lp#655581)
+ * bug fix: the compiler could attempt to emit constant left shifts of
+ greater value than n-word-bits. (lp#309063)
+ * bug fix: (SETF SYMBOL-FUNCTION) and (SETF FDEFINITION) clear derived
+ type information for the function being set. (lp#659220)
+ * bug fix: the system used to signal bogus STYLE-WARNINGs when functions
+ containing self-calls were recompiled with a new signature, and failed
+ to warn when a self-call using the old signature was left in. (lp#655126)
+ * bug fix: incorrect FILE-POSITION on streams opened using :EXTERNAL-FORMAT
+ :DEFAULT when the default external had character size other than 8 bits.

+ trusted, leading to potential heap corruption when those function were
+ defined incompatibly. (lp#657499)
+ * bug fix: existing ASDF source registries are ignored when building
+ contribs (lp#659105)
+ * bug fix: short-form DEFSETF checks that the second argument is a symbol
+ (lp#655824, thanks to Roman Marynchak)
+ * bug fix: (SETF MACRO-FUNCTION) clobbered macro-definitions before

+changes in sbcl-1.0.43 relative to sbcl-1.0.42:
+ * incompatible change: FD-STREAMS no longer participate in the serve-event
+ event-loop by default. (lp#316072)
+ ** In addition to streams created by explicit calls to MAKE-FD-STREAM this
+ affects streams from CL:OPEN.
+ ** Streams from SOCKET-MAKE-STREAM still participate in serve-event by
+ default, but this is liable to change: applications needing serve-event
+ for socket streams should explicitly request it using :SERVE-EVENTS T
+ in the call.

+ &co.
+ * enhancement: CLOS effective method functions and defclass slot typechecking

+ * bug fix: package-locks failed to protect against compile-time effects of
+ DEFUN when the symbol previously had a macro definition. (lp#576637)
+ * bug fix: spurious ignore warnings even given (DECLARE IGNORE) in methods
+ when parameter bindings mutated. (reported by Faré Rideau; lp #611361)
+ * bug fix: workaround for compiler hang in ORDER-UVL-SETS (lp#308914)

+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.41 relative to sbcl-1.0.40:
+ * optimization: validity of observed keyword initargs to MAKE-INSTANCE is
+ cached, leading to many fewer expensive calls to
+ COMPUTE-APPLICABLE-METHODS.
+ * optimization: in the (unoptimized) general method for MAKE-INSTANCE on a
+ CLASS argument, search for and call an appropriate optimized ctor function
+ if it exists.
+ * bug fix: WRITE always returns the correct value.
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.40 relative to sbcl-1.0.39:
+ * bug fix: readdir now works on :inode64 darwin builds (lp#592897)
+ * bug fix: Name conflicts between symbols passed as arguments to a single

+ the calling frame.
+ * bug fix: linkage-table entries on PPC now no longer overflow their
+ space allocation (potentially causing crashes if they are written out

+ * bug fix: Literal characters with code points greater than about 32767
+ now work on PPC UNICODE builds.

+ * incompatible change: Thread names are now restricted to SIMPLE-STRINGs
+ like for any other thread-related datastructure, MUTEX, etc. (lp#547095)
+ * deprecation: the SB-QUEUE contrib was merged into the SB-CONCURRENCY

+ * deprecation: SB-THEAD:GET-MUTEX was deprecated in favor of
+ SB-THREAD:GRAB-MUTEX.
+ * new contributed module: SB-CONCURRENCY is a new contrib; it's supposed to
+ contain additional data structures and tools for concurrent programming;
+ at the moment it contains a lock-free queue, and a lock-free mailbox
+ implementation.
+ * new feature: added SB-THREAD:GRAB-MUTEX; it's like the now deprecated
+ GET-MUTEX but takes &key rather than &optional parameters. Also added
+ :TIMEOUT argument to GRAB-MUTEX on non-sb-lutex platforms like Linux and
+ BSD.
+ * new feature: added SB-THREAD:TRY-SEMAPHORE, a non-blocking variant of
+ SB-THREAD:WAIT-ON-SEMAPHORE.

+ * enhancement: SB-BSD-SOCKET improvements
+ ** sockets and socket streams now have a more informative printed
+ representation based on the corresponding SOCKET-NAME and
+ SOCKET-PEERNAME.
+ ** SOCKET-MAKE-STREAM once more supports the :AUTO-CLOSE option.
+ (lp#540413)
+ ** SOCKET-CLOSE now accepts :ABORT argument, which is passed on to
+ CL:CLOSE when appropriate, and no longer disassociates the stream
+ from the socket if close failed. (lp#543951)
+ * improvements to the instrumenting profiler
+ ** new feature: report per-function GC overhead. (thanks to John Fremlin)
+ ** optimization: counters no longer use locks for the overflow mode.
+ ** bug fix: whenever a profiling counter wrapped into overflow mode, it
+ incurred an off-by-one miscount.
+ * enhancement: improved MAKE-HASH-TABLE documentation (lp#543473)
+ * enhancement: improved DEFMETHOD pretty-printing.
+ * enhancement: perform range reduction when arguments are too large for
+ x87's transcendentals (instead of returning 0). (lp#327192)
+ * enhancement: eliminate some spurious TYPE-WARNINGs. Should help with
+ some of CL-PPCRE's macros. (lp#570079)
+ * enhancement: our machine code is slightly less hostile to valgrind on
+ x86-64.
+ * enhancement: up-to-date versions of NetBSD-current are supported. (Thanks
+ to Robert Swindells and Aleksej Saushev)
+ * bug fix: correct restart text for the continuable error in MAKE-PACKAGE.
+ * bug fix: a rare case of startup-time page table corruption.
+ * bug fix: a semaphore with multiple waiters and some of them unwinding due
+ to timeouts could be left in an inconsistent state.

+ * bug fix: misoptimization of multiplication by one in
+ (SB-C::FLOAT-ACCURACY 0) policies.
+ * bug fix: miscounts in SB-PROFILE.
+ * bug fix: Fix lost wakeup bug between SB-THREAD:CONDITION-WAIT and
+ CONDITION-NOTIFY on Linux. See threads "lost wakeup in condition-wait /
+ condition-notify" (Feb 2010) and "Condition-Wait, Deadline handler, waking
+ up itself" (March 2010) for further details.
+ * bug fix: allow forward FIND and POSITION on lists to elide checking :END
+ against length of the list if the element is found before the specified
+ END is reached. (thanks to Alec Berryman, lp#554385)
+ * bug fix: errors signalled during package graph modification no longer
+ block FIND-SYMBOL and FIND-PACKAGE in other threads. (lp#511072)
+ * bug fix: SB-POSIX build was broken when SBCL was compiled without the
+ :SB-DOC feature. (lp#552564)

+ ignored anymore.
+ * bug fix: Maybe restore buildability on Alpha.
+ * bug fix: READ-BYTE isn't inline anymore, fixing weird streams failures.
+ (lp#569404)
+ * bug fix: RANDOM-STATE can be printed readably again.
+ * bug fix: Unreadable objects were sometimes printed like #<\nFoo>.
+ * bug fix: Using EQL with non-constant values of constant type (e.g. EQL
+ types) could result in type mismatches during compilation.
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.37 relative to sbcl-1.0.36:

+ translations from SYS:SITE;<HOST>.TRANSLATIONS.NEWEST (thanks to Michael
+ Weber)
