+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
+ (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
