   * x86 bug fix in control stack exhaustion checking: now shows backtrace
   * bug fix in WITH-TIMEOUT: now the body can have more than one form.
     (thanks to Stig Sandoe)
+  * bug fix in READ-SEQUENCE: READ-SEQUENCE following PEEK-CHAR or
+    UNREAD-CHAR now correctly includes the unread character in the
+    target sequence.  (thanks to Gerd Moellmann)
+  * new optimization: inside a named function any reference to a
+    function with the same name is considered to be a self-reference;
+    this behaviour is controlled with SB-C::RECOGNIZE-SELF-CALLS
+    optimization quality.
+  * new optimization on x86: logical functions and + now have
+    optimized (UNSIGNED-BYTE 32) versions, which are automatically
+    used when the result is truncated to 32 bits.
   * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
     ** The system now obeys the constraint imposed by
        UPGRADED-ARRAY-ELEMENT-TYPE that the upgraded array element
        types form a lattice under type intersection.
     ** FFLOOR, FTRUNCATE, FCEILING and FROUND work with integers.
     ** ASSOC now ignores NIL elements in an alist.
+    ** CEILING now gives the right answer with MOST-NEGATIVE-FIXNUM
+       and (1+ MOST-POSITIVE-FIXNUM) answers.

   * (not done yet, but planned:) When the profiling interface settles
