* bug fix: FILE-STRING-LENGTH is now external-format sensitive,
returning the number of octets which would be written to the
file-stream. (thanks to Robert J. Macomber)
+ * bug fix: the SB-SIMPLE-STREAMS contrib passes external-format
+ arguments to the internal stream functions. (thanks to David
+ Lichteblau)
* optimization: improved type inference for arithmetic-for
index variables in LOOP
* optimization: faster floating-point SQRT on x86-64
