+changes in sbcl-0.7.12 relative to sbcl-0.7.11:
+  * minor incompatible change: code processed by the "interpreter" or
+    EVAL now has a compilation optimization policy of (DEBUG 2)
+    (changed from (DEBUG 1)) to improve debuggability of interactive
+    development, and to allow the use of the debug RETURN command in
+    such code.
+  * an experimental implementation of the RETURN command for the
+    debugger has been included.  (thanks to Frederik Kuivinen)
+  * fixed bug 62: constraints were not propagated into a loop.
+  * fixed bug in embedded calls of SORT (reported and investigated by
+    Wolfgang Jenkner).
+  * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
+    ** printing and reading of arrays with some dimensions having
+       length 0 (thanks to Gerd Moellmann);
+    ** BOA constructor with &AUX argument without a default value does
+       not cause a type error;
+    ** CONSTANTP now returns true for all self-evaluating objects.
