   * SBCL now builds and runs on MacOS X (version 10.2), or perhaps
     more accurately, on the Darwin kernel running on PowerPC hardware.
     (thanks to Brian Mastenbrook, Pierre Mai and Patrik Nordebo)
+  * Compiler code deletion notes now signal a condition of type
+    SB-EXT:CODE-DELETION-NOTE (a subtype of SB-EXT:COMPILER-NOTE) with
+    an associated MUFFLE-WARNING restart.
+  * The compiler now performs limited argument count validation of
+    constant format strings in FORMAT, and where appropriate in ERROR, 
+    CERROR and WARN.  (thanks to Gerd Moellmann)
   * bug fix: WITH-OUTPUT-TO-STRING (and MAKE-STRING-OUTPUT-STREAM) now
     accept and act upon their :ELEMENT-TYPE keyword argument.

+       types form a lattice under type intersection.
+    ** FFLOOR, FTRUNCATE, FCEILING and FROUND work with integers.
+    ** ASSOC now ignores NIL elements in an alist.
