+changes in sbcl-0.9.6 relative to sbcl-0.9.5:
+ * bug fix: add a workaround to SBCL looping infinitely at startup on
+ Linux kernels with apparently buggy implementations of personality().
+ (thanks to Svein Ove Aas)
+ * bug fix: Unicode symbols are correctly printed in LDB backtraces
+ (thanks to David Lichteblau)
+ * optimization: non-open coded uses of numeric comparison operators
+ (e.g. >) no longer cons when called with more than one parameter
+ on platforms supporting dynamic-extent allocation.
+ * enhancement: saving cores with foreign code loaded is now supported
+ on MIPS/Linux in addition to the previously supported platforms.
+ * bug fix: threads stacks belonging to dead threads are freed by the
+ next exiting thread, no need to gc to collect thread stacks anymore
+ * minor incompatible change: INTERRUPT-THREAD-ERROR-ERRNO removed
+
changes in sbcl-0.9.5 relative to sbcl-0.9.4:
* new feature: timers based on Zach Beane's excellent timer package
* added support for the following external formats: koi8-u,
funcallable-instances. (reported by Cyrus Harmon)
* bug fix: FUNCTIONP and (LAMBDA (X) (TYPEP X 'FUNCTION)) are now
consistent, even on internal alternate-metaclass objects.
- * bug fix: SB-MOP:FUNCALLABLE-STANDARD-OBJECT is now a subclass of
- STANDARD-OBJECT, as required by AMOP.
- * bug fix: the classes STANDARD-CLASS and
- SB-MOP:FUNCALLABLE-STANDARD-CLASS are now compatible in the
- SB-MOP:VALIDATE-SUPERCLASS sense; there remains a constraint about
- finalized classes and the FUNCTION class.
- * bug fix: the SB-MOP:METAOBJECT class is now implemented as
- specified by AMOP.
* bug fix: flush closure information collected by physical
environment analysis prepass before the main pass. (bug reported
by Vasile Rotaru)
* bug fix: compiler pack phase does not modify a hashtable, which is
iterated. (reported by Bryan O'Connor, fixed by Rob MacLachlan)
+ * bug fix: backquote does not optimize (LIST* x y) to CONS when x
+ may be expanded. (reported by Alexander <malishev> on c.l.l)
+ * bug fix: no more style-warnings when compiling code using LAST
+ under high-SPEED low-SPACE settings. (reported by David Wallin
+ aka froog on #lisp)
+ * fixed some incompatibilities between SBCL's MOP and the MOP
+ specified by AMOP:
+ ** the METAOBJECT class is now implemented;
+ ** FUNCALLABLE-STANDARD-OBJECT is now a subclass of
+ STANDARD-OBJECT, as required;
+ ** the classes STANDARD-CLASS and FUNCALLABLE-STANDARD-CLASS are
+ now compatible (as required by VALIDATE-SUPERCLASS); there
+ remains a consistency requirement over the presence or absence
+ of the FUNCTION class in the superclass list of finalized
+ classes; see the manual for more details;
+ ** the :AROUND method for COMPUTE-SLOTS on
+ FUNCALLABLE-STANDARD-CLASS now honours the primary method's
+ requested slot ordering.
* threads
** bug fix: parent thread now can be gc'ed even with a live
child thread
