+changes relative to sbcl-1.0.57:
+ * enhancement: implicit generic function warnings now specify the package
+ in which the new generic function is being created.
+ * enhancement: SB-EXT:ATOMIC-UPDATE makes it easy to perform non-destructive
+ updates of CAS-able places (similar to Clojure's swap!).
+ * enhancement: run-program no longer decodes and re-encodes environment when
+ :environment argument is not provided. (lp#985904)
+ * bug fix: potential for infinite recursion during compilation of CLOS slot
+ typechecks when dependency graph had loops. (lp#1001799)
+ * bug fix: error forms reported with some program-errors were not escaped
+ properly.
+ * bug fix: functions from EVAL are now on more equal footing with functions
+ from COMPILE. (lp#1000783, lp#851170, lp#922408)
+ * bug fix: ENSURE-GENERIC-METHOD-COMBINATION accepts method combination
+ objects as its :METHOD-COMBINATION argument, not just lists designating
+ method combinations. (lp#936513)
+ * bug fix: run-program no longer unconditionally uses /tmp/ for temporary
+ files. (lp#968837).
+ * optimization: On x86-64, code alignment of block headers is done with
+ multi-byte NOPs now instead of repetitions of the single-byte NOP.

+changes in sbcl-1.0.57 relative to sbcl-1.0.56:
* RANDOM enhancements and bug fixes:
** bug fix: the range and distribution of random integers could be
catastrophically wrong when the compiler derived the type of its
** bug fix: the distribution of random integers is now completely
uniform even when the specified limit is not a power of two.
(Previously some values could be about 0.1 % more probable than
- others in the worst case.)
+ others in the worst case.) (lp#309467)
** RANDOM on large integer arguments is generally faster and conses
less than before; this is visible for fixnums above a length of
about 24 bits, but extremely so for bignums: the old implementation
