+changes relative to sbcl-1.1.2:
+  * bug fix: fasls are now once again directly executable (on platforms
+    supporting shebang lines, with a suitably-installed sbcl).
+
+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
