changes in sbcl-0.9.2 relative to sbcl-0.9.1:
+ * numerous signal handling fixes to increase stability
+ * bug fix: interrupt-thread restores the eflags register on x86
+ * minor incompatible change: we now correctly canonize default
+ initargs, making them be a list of (INITARG INITFORM INITFUNCTION)
+ as per the MOP, rather than the historical (INITARG INITFUNCTION
+ INITFORM). (reported by Bruno Haible)
+ * new feature: WITH-COMPILATION-UNIT now accepts a non-standard
+ :SOURCE-PLIST option. See (DOCUMENTATION #'WITH-COMPILATION-UNIT T)
+ for more information.
+ * TRUENAME and PROBE-FILE now correctly resolve symlinks even if the
+ pathname is a directory pathname.
* SB-SPROF now works (more) reliably on non-GENCGC platforms.
* fixed some lockups due to gc/thread interaction
* dynamic space size on PPC has been increased to 768Mb. (thanks to
* SB-MOP:ENSURE-CLASS-USING-CLASS now accepts a class as the
:METACLASS argument in addition to a class name. (reported by
Bruno Haible for CMUCL, patch for CMUCL by Gerd Moellman)
+ * bug fix: sbcl runtime can now be compiled with gcc4 (thanks to
+ Sascha Wilde)
+ * bug fix: more cleanups to the floating point exception handling on
+ x86-64 (thanks to James Knight)
+ * optimization: improved the MIPS versions of generic (in the
+ generic sense) arithmetic routines. (thanks to Thiemo Seufer)
+ * contrib improvement: it's harder to cause SOCKET-CLOSE to close()
+ the wrong file descriptor; implementation of SOCKET-OPEN-P.
+ (thanks to Tony Martinez)
* fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
- ** Invalid dotted lists no longer raise a read error when
+ ** invalid dotted lists no longer raise a read error when
*READ-SUPPRESS* is T
+ ** signal an error if a symbol that names a declaration is used
+ as the name of a type, or vice versa
+ ** allow using the (declare (typespec var*)) abbreviation for
+ (declare (type typespec var*)) with all type specifiers
+ ** circularity detection works properly with PPRINT-LOGICAL-BLOCK
+ ** always return NIL from PPRINT-POP when OBJECT is NIL
+ ** don't signal errors when pretty-printing malformed LABELS,
+ FLET or MACROLET forms
changes in sbcl-0.9.1 relative to sbcl-0.9.0:
* fixed cross-compiler leakages that prevented building a 32-bit
