changes relative to sbcl-1.0.36:
+ * new feature: added SB-THREAD:TRY-SEMAPHORE, a non-blocking variant of
+ SB-THREAD:WAIT-ON-SEMAPHORE.
+ * new feature: SB-EXT:ATOMIC-DECF has been added as a companion to
+ SB-EXT:ATOMIC-INCF.
+ * enhancement: *STANDARD-OUTPUT*, *STANDARD-INPUT*, and *ERROR-OUTPUT* are
+ now bivalent.
+ * enhancement: errors from NO-APPLICABLE-METHOD and
+ NO-PRIMARY-METHOD now have a RETRY restart available to retry the
+ generic function call.
+ * bug fix: correct restart text for the continuable error in MAKE-PACKAGE.
+ * bug fix: a rare case of startup-time page table corruption.
+ * bug fix: a semaphore with multiple waiters and some of them unwinding due
+ to timeouts could be left in an inconsistent state.

+changes in sbcl-1.0.37 relative to sbcl-1.0.36:
* enhancement: Backtrace from THROW to uncaught tag on x86oids now shows
stack frame thrown from.
+ * enhancement: WITH-COMPILATION-UNIT :POLICY allows restricting changes to
+ compiler optimization qualities inside dynamic extent of its body.
+ * enhancement: LOAD-LOGICAL-PATHNAME-TRANSLATIONS can be used to load
+ translations from SYS:SITE;<HOST>.TRANSLATIONS.NEWEST (thanks to Michael
+ Weber)
* optimization: SLOT-VALUE and (SETF SLOT-VALUE) take advantage of
constraint propgation, allowing better compilation eg. when used to
access structures with WITH-SLOTS. (lp#520366)
for accessing such arrays.
* optimization: passing NIL as the environment argument to TYPEP no longer
inhibits optimizing it. (lp#309788)
+ * optimization: more efficient register usage when handling single-float
+ arguments on x86-64. (thanks to Lutz Euler)
+ * optimization: ADJUST-ARRAY and STABLE-SORT on vectors no longer use
+ pre-allocated temporary vectors. (lp#496249)
* bug fix: Fix compiler error involving MAKE-ARRAY and IF forms
in :INITIAL-CONTENTS. (lp#523612)
* bug fix: FUNCTION-LAMBDA-EXPRESSION lost declarations from interpreted
functions. (lp#524707)
* bug fix: bogus style warnings from certain (SETF SLOT-VALUE) and
WITH-SLOTS usages during compilation.
- * bug fix: SB-C::CLASS-INFO now prints correctly (lp#514762)
+ * bug fix: SB-C::CLASS-INFO now prints correctly. (lp#514762)
* enhancement: Can now build with ud2 instead of int3 as trap instruction on
all x86oid platforms with :UD2-BREAKPOINTS target feature.
* bug fix: Breakpoints now work when using ud2 instead of int3 as trap
instruction (tested on x86oid linux with ud2-breakpoints).
* bug fix: slam.sh now works on win32.
- * bug fix: better differences of numeric types (lp#309124)
+ * bug fix: better differences of numeric types. (lp#309124)
* bug fix: arrays declared intersection and union types can have their
- upgraded element type derived (lp#316078)
+ upgraded element type derived. (lp#316078)
+ * bug fix: SB-SPROF allocation profiling for all threads failed to profile
+ threads started during profiling. (lp#472499)
+ * bug fix: SB-INTROSPECT test failure when building without SB-EVAL feature.
+ (lp#535658)
+ * bug fix: SB-CLTL2:DECLARATION-INFORMATION did not take
+ SB-EXT:RESTRICT-COMPILER-POLICY into account. (lp#313337)
+ * bug fix: Comma inside a backquoted array or structure resulted in nonsense
+ values instead of signaling an error. (lp#309093)
+ * bug fix: Spurious unused variable warning in a DEFSTRUCT edge case.
+ (lp#528807)
+ * bug fix: More consistent warnings and notes for ignored DYNAMIC-EXTENT
+ declarations (lp#497321)
+ * bug fix: FIND and POSITION on lists did not check sequence bounds properly
+ and failed to detect circular lists (lp#452008)
+ * bug fix: leakage from ~/.asdf-install into the ASDf-INSTALL contrib build
+ (lp#538974)
+ * bug fix: LOOP OF-TYPE VECTOR compile-time error. (lp#540186)
+ * bug fix: SIGNAL SB-SYS:INTERACTIVE-INTERRUPT before entering the debugger
+ due to it, so that handlers can run.
+ * bug fix: reparsing undefined types if they have become defined since
+ parsing. (lp#309128)
+ * bug fix: missing &REST type in a proclamation for a function with both
+ &REST and &KEY in lambda-list caused miscompilation (lp#458354)
+ * bug fix: WHO-CALLS information for source-transformed and compiler-macro
+ expanded calls (lp#542174)
+ * bug fix: more accurate WHO-MACROEXPANDS information; point into rather
+ than just at toplevel form.
