+changes in sbcl-1.0.12 relative to sbcl-1.0.11:
+ * bug fix: SB-SYS:WITH-PINNED-OBJECTS could cause garbage values to
+ be returned from its body when the values were being returned
+ using unknown-values return convection and the W-P-O was wrapped
+ inside an UNWIND-PROTECT.
+ * bug fix: sb-posix should now compile again under Windows, enabling
+ slime to work again.
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.11 relative to sbcl-1.0.10:
+ * incompatible change: hash-table accessor functions are no longer
+ automatically protected by locks. Concurrent accesses on the same hash-table
+ from multiple threads can give inconsistent results or even corrupt the
+ hash-table completely. Multi-threaded applications should do their own
+ locking at the correct granularity. In the current implementation it is
+ still safe to have multiple readers access the same table, but it's not
+ guaranteed that this property will be maintained in future releases.
+ * minor incompatible change: (SETF MUTEX-VALUE) is not longer supported,
+ and will signal an error at runtime.
+ * enhancement: SB-THREAD package now exports a semaphore interface.
+ * enhancement: CONS can now stack-allocate on x86 and
+ x86-64. (Earlier LIST and LIST* supported stack-allocation, but
+ CONS did not.)
+ * enhancement: nested lists can now be stack allocated on
+ platforms providing stack allocation support.
+ * enhancement: dynamic-extent support has been extended to support
+ cases where there are multiple possible sources for the stack
+ allocated value.
+ * optimization: RELEASE-MUTEX no longer needs to perform a syscall
+ if the mutex is uncontested on Linux.
+ * bug fix: symbol-macro expansion now uses the *MACROEXPAND-HOOK*
+ as specified by the CLHS. (thanks to Tobias Rittweiler)
+ * bug fix: NaN comparison now works on x86-64.
+ * bug fix: CLOSE :ABORT T on a stream with pending output now
+ works.
+ * bug fix: instances of non-standard metaclasses using standard
+ instance structure protocol sometimes missed the slot type checks
+ in safe code.
+ * bug fix: known functions can be inlined in high-debug code.
+
changes in sbcl-1.0.10 relative to sbcl-1.0.9:
* minor incompatible change: the MSI installer on Windows no longer
associates .lisp and .fasl files with the installed SBCL.
* optimization: scavenging weak pointers is now more efficient,
requiring O(1) instead of O(N) per weak pointer to identify
scanvenged vs. unscavenged pointers. (thanks to Paul Khuong)
+ * optimization: typechecking (SETF SLOT-VALUE) is now ~5x faster in
+ method bodies using constant slot-names when the first argument is
+ a specializer parameter for the method.
* optimization: SLOT-VALUE &co are now ~50% faster for variable slot
names, when the class of the instance is a direct instance
STANDARD-CLASS or FUNCALLABLE-STANDARD-CLASS (making them only 3x
the CAS operation was being performed.
* bug fix: copy propagation interfered with parallel assignment
semantics in local calls. (reported by Paul Khuong)
+ * bug fix: the signed modular fixnum shift compiled to wrong code on
+ x86 and x86-64. (spotted by a slight modification to some of
+ PFD's random tests)
changes in sbcl-1.0.9 relative to sbcl-1.0.8:
* minor incompatible change: SB-SYS:OUTPUT-RAW-BYTES is deprecated.
