to Martin Atzmueller's review of it.
* The debugger now flushes standard output streams before it begins
its output ("debugger invoked" and so forth).
-?? FINISH-OUTPUT now works better than it did before. (It used to
- have trouble with characters which weren't followed by a linefeed.)
- ?? Remember to remove this from BUGS.
-?? The patch for the SUBSEQ bug reported on the cmucl-imp mailing
- list 12 September 2000 has been applied to SBCL.
-?? Martin Atzmueller's versions of two CMU CL patches, as posted on
- sbcl-devel 13 September 2000, have been installed. (The patches fix
- a bug in SUBSEQ and <a bug in ??>.)
-?? A bug in signal handling which kept TRACE from working on OpenBSD
+* The core version number and fasl file version number have both
+ been incremented, because of incompatible changes in the layout
+ of static symbols.
+* FINISH-OUTPUT is now called more consistently on QUIT. (It
+ used to not be called for a saved Lisp image.)
+* Martin Atzmueller's version of a patch to fix a compiler crash,
+ as posted on sbcl-devel 13 September 2000, has been installed.
+* Instead of installing Martin Atzmueller's patch for the
+ compiler transform for SUBSEQ, I deleted the compiler transform,
+ and transforms for some similar consing operations.
+* A bug in signal handling which kept TRACE from working on OpenBSD
has been fixed.
- ?? Remember to remove this from the port-specific section of BUGS.
-?? The signal handling bug reported by Martin Atzmueller on
- sbcl-devel 13 September 2000, which caused the debugger to
- get confused after a Ctrl-C interrupt under ILISP, has been fixed.
-?? added enough DEFTRANSFORMs to allow (SXHASH 'FOO) to be optimized
+* added enough DEFTRANSFORMs to allow (SXHASH 'FOO) to be optimized
away by constant folding
-?? The system now defines its address space constants in one place
+* The system now defines its address space constants in one place
(in the Lisp sources), and propagates them automatically elsewhere
(through GENESIS and the sbcl.h file). Therefore, patching the
address map is less unnecessarily tedious and error-prone. The
Lisp names of address space constants have also been systematized.
-?? dollar-Header-dollar and other CVS magic tags have been removed
- from the sources, because they have never saved me trouble and
- they've been a nuisance working with patches and other
+* CVS tags like dollar-Header-dollar have been removed from
+ the sources, because they have never saved me trouble and
+ they've been source of trouble working with patches and other
diff-related operations.
+* fixed the PROG1-vs.-PROGN bug in HANDLER-BIND (reported by
+ ole.rohne@cern.ch on cmucl-help@cons.org 2000-10-25)
+
+changes in sbcl-0.6.9 relative to sbcl-0.6.8:
+
+?? DESCRIBE now works on CONDITION objects.
+?? The debugger now handles errors which arise when trying to print
+ *DEBUG-CONDITION*, so that it's less likely to fall into infinite
+ regress.
+?? signal handling reliability
+?? fixed some bugs mentioned in the man page:
+ ?? DEFUN-vs.-DECLAIM
