 changes in sbcl-1.0.4 relative to sbcl-1.0.3:
+  * new platform: experimental support for x86-64/darwin (MacOS).
   * incompatible change: the thread-safe (on most platforms) getaddrinfo
     and getnameinfo sockets functions are used instead of gethostbyaddr
     and gethostbyname, on platforms where the newer functions are available.
     As a result, the ALIASES field of HOST-ENT will always be NIL on these
     platforms.
+  * optimization: code using alien values with undeclared types is much faster
   * bug fix: >= and <= gave wrong results when used with NaNs.
   * bug fix: the #= and ## reader macros now interact reasonably with
     funcallable instances.
