   * enhancement: SB-EXT:MAKE-THREAD accepts an argument list designator for
     the thunk, as a keyword argument, :arguments.
+  * enhancement: constraint propagation is simplified (and sped up) when

   * optimization: extracting bits of a single-float on x86-64 has been
     optimized. (lp#555201)
+  * optimization: MAP and MAP-INTO are more efficient for non-simple vectors,

+  * optimization: local call trampolines (x86 and x86-64) are emitted

+  * meta-optimization: improved compilation speed, especially for large

   * bug fix: bound derivation for floating point operations is now more
     careful about rounding possibly closing open bounds. (lp#793771)
