-changes relative to sbcl-1.1.0:
- * enhancement: WITH-COMPILATION-UNIT no longer grabs the world-lock. (COMPILE and
- COMPILE-FILE still do.)
- * bug fix: SB-CLTL2:MACROEXPAND-ALL correctly handles shadowing of symbol-macros
- by lexical bindings.
- * bug fix: stack allocation was prevented by high DEBUG declaration in several
- cases.
+changes in sbcl-1.1.4 relative to sbcl-1.1.3:
+ * optimization: LOOP expressions using "of-type character" have slightly
+ more efficient expansions.
+ * bug fix: very long (or infinite) constant lists in DOLIST do not result
+ in very long compile times or heap exhaustion anymore. (lp#1095488)
+ * bug fix: `#3(1) is read as #(1 1 1), not as #(1). (lp#1095918)
+ * bug fix: adjust-array ignored :initial-element for simple-vectors.
+ (lp#1096359)
+ * bug fix: optimizations to MAKE-INSTANCE with literal list initargs no
+ longer cause infinite loops (on circular data) or violate eqlity
+ constraints. (lp#1099708)
+ * bug fix: FIRST was not being open coded. (regression from 1.1.0)
+
+changes in sbcl-1.1.3 relative to sbcl-1.1.2:
+ * enhancement: warnings about bad locale settings, LANG, LC_CTYPE, etc.
+ (lp#727625)
+ * enhancement: support for C-c to interrupt the foreground thread
+ on Windows. (Thanks to Anton Kovalenko.)
+ * enhancement: STDCALL alien callbacks. (Thanks to Anton Kovalenko.)
+ * enhancement: Safepoint builds on POSIX platforms can now optionally be
+ built without pseudo-atomic sequences and their run-time overhead.
+ * enhancement: Threads created outside of Lisp can enter Lisp through
+ alien callbacks and appear as Lisp threads for the duration of that
+ function invocation. On safepoint builds only.
+ * enhancement: Miscellaneous improvements to namestrings and underlying
+ calls to OS functions for file system access on Windows. (Thanks to
+ Anton Kovalenko.)
+ * enhancement: The MSI installer support for Windows now uses Windows
+ Installer XML at least version 3.5 and includes various usability
+ improvements. (Thanks to Dmitry Kalyanov and Anton Kovalenko.)
+ * enhancement: The sb-bsd-sockets contrib now supports non-blocking-mode
+ on Windows. (Thanks to Anton Kovalenko.)
+ * enhancement: The Windows backend now supports the x86-64 platform.
+ (Thanks to Anton Kovalenko.)
+ * bug fix: fasls are now once again directly executable (on platforms
+ supporting shebang lines, with a suitably-installed sbcl).
+ * bug fix: make.sh --help no longer runs clean.sh. (lp#937001)
+ * bug fix: Fix CAS access to slots of direct instances of structure classes
+ in the presence of subclasses sharing the same conc-name.
+ * bug fix: Logical pathname namestrings on Windows have been changed to
+ be lower-case, to minimize differences between POSIX and Windows.
+
+changes in sbcl-1.1.2 relative to sbcl-1.1.1:
+ * notice: System requirements for SBCL on Microsoft Windows: Windows NT 5.1
+ or newer (Windows XP, Server 2003) is required. Support for Windows 2000
+ (NT 5.0) is no longer being maintained.
+ * notice: Starting with this version, SBCL on Windows no longer supports
+ building with disabled thread support.
+ * enhancement: frlocks have been added to SB-CONCURRENCY contrib module.
+ * enhancement: New feature sb-dynamic-core allows the runtime to be
+ rebuilt or relocated without requiring changes to the core file on
+ all linkage table platforms. Required on Windows. (Thanks to Anton
+ Kovalenko.)
+ * enhancement: Console I/O streams use UCS-2. (Thanks to Anton Kovalenko.)
+ * enhancement: I/O on Windows unnamed pipes is interruptible
+ asynchronously using interrupt-thread, timers when running on Windows NT
+ version 6.1 or newer (Windows 7, Server 2008 R2). (Thanks to Anton
+ Kovalenko.)
+ * enhancement: Support for the experimental safepoint-based stop-the-world
+ protocol on the PowerPC platform.
+ * bug fix: Non-blocking reads from the Windows console were not necessarily
+ non-blocking. Thanks to Anton Kovalenko. (lp#308923)
+ * bug fix: stability of threads on Windows has been improved upon through
+ an updated stop-the-world protocol (thanks to Anton Kovalenko).
+
+changes in sbcl-1.1.1 relative to sbcl-1.1.0:
+ * enhancement: WITH-COMPILATION-UNIT no longer grabs the world-lock.
+ (COMPILE and COMPILE-FILE still do.)
+ * optimization: the SPARC backend now supports the precise generational
+ (GENCGC) garbage collection. Enabled by default on Solaris/SPARC and
+ Linux/SPARC. Thanks to Raymond Toy (via CMUCL).
+ * enhancement: add experimental support for the SB-THREAD feature and the
+ timer facility on Windows. Thanks to Dmitry Kalyanov and Anton Kovalenko.
+ Threads are enabled by default, and this version of SBCL is considered
+ to be the last and final release to officially support building with
+ threads disabled.
+ * optimization: The compiler no longer rotates loops in some cases where
+ this transformation actually lead to worse code being generated.
+ * bug fix: SB-CLTL2:MACROEXPAND-ALL correctly handles shadowing of
+ symbol-macros by lexical bindings.
+ * bug fix: stack allocation was prevented by high DEBUG declaration in
+ several cases.
+ * bug fix: SB-EXT:GC-LOGFILE signaled an error when no logfile was set.
+ (thanks to SANO Masatoshi)
+ * bug fix: PARSE-NATIVE-NAMESTRING performed non-native parsing when
+ :JUNK-ALLOWED was true.
+ * bug fix: type derivation inferred overly conservative types for
+ unions of array types. (lp#1050768)
changes in sbcl-1.1.0 relative to sbcl-1.0.58:
