+changes in sbcl-1.0.4 relative to sbcl-1.0.3:
+ * new platform: experimental support for x86-64/darwin (MacOS).
+ * incompatible change: the thread-safe (on most platforms) getaddrinfo
+ and getnameinfo sockets functions are used instead of gethostbyaddr
+ and gethostbyname, on platforms where the newer functions are available.
+ As a result, the ALIASES field of HOST-ENT will always be NIL on these
+ platforms.
+ * optimization: code using alien values with undeclared types is much faster.
+ * optimization: the compiler is now able to open code SEARCH in more cases.
+ * bug fix: >= and <= gave wrong results when used with NaNs.
+ * bug fix: the #= and ## reader macros now interact reasonably with
+ funcallable instances.
+ * bug fix: type-checks for function arguments were compiled using the
+ compiler policy settings of the wrong lexical environment (in 1.0.2
+ and 1.0.3).
+ * bug fix: SHADOW accepts characters as string designators, as required
+ by the spec (thanks to Eric Marsden)
+ * bug fix: fixed GC safety issues when foreign functions are called with
+ non-base strings as arguments
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.3 relative to sbcl-1.0.2:
+ * new platform: NetBSD/PPC. (thanks to Aymeric Vincent)
+ * optimization: calls of the form (AREF FOO (+ INDEX <constant>)) now
+ produce more efficient code on the x86 if the compiler can determine
+ that (+ INDEX <constant>) does not require a bounds check and FOO
+ has an element type at least 8 bits wide.
+ * bug fix: references to undefined variables are handled the same way
+ in toplevel forms as in the normal compiler
+ * bug fix: the build scripts again work with non-bash /bin/sh (thanks
+ to Magnus Henoch)
+ * bug fix: use "gtar" as the asdf-install *TAR-PROGRAM* on NetBSD
+ (thanks to Jon Buller)
+ * improvement: faster compilation times for complex functions
+ * improvement: added readlink support to SB-POSIX (thanks to Richard
+ M Kreuter)
+
changes in sbcl-1.0.2 relative to sbcl-1.0.1:
* improvement: experimental support for mach exception handling on
x86/macos. requires building with :MACH-EXCEPTION-HANDLER feature
to use.
* improvement: support for GBK external format.
(thanks to Chun Tian (binghe))
+ * improvement: the debugger now displays variables that have been closed
+ over, in code compiled with (DEBUG 2) or higher
+ * improvement: support for executable cores on NetBSD (thanks to
+ Richard Kreuter)
+ * new feature: added a RESTART-FRAME debugger command
+ * new feature: new generic function SB-GRAY:STREAM-FILE-POSITION can
+ be used to provide an implementation for FILE-POSITION on Gray streams
+ (thanks to Eric Marsden)
+ * new feature: add syslog, openlog and closelog support to SB-POSIX
+ (thanks to Richard Kreuter)
+ * optimization: the function call overhead in code compiled with
+ a high DEBUG optimization setting is significantly
+ * bug fix: an error is signaled for attempts to use READ-SEQUENCE
+ for a (SIGNED-BYTE 8) stream and (UNSIGNED-BYTE 8) vector, or vice versa.
+ (thanks to Tony Martinez)
+ * bug fix: the initforms for DEFMETHOD &AUX parameters are only
+ evaluated once (reported by Kevin Reid)
+ * bug fix: the :SHOW-PROGRESS keyword parameter to SB-SPROF:WITH-PROFILING
+ works again (thanks to Kilian Sprotte)
+ * bug fix: an error is signaled for tagbodies with duplicate tags
+ (thanks to Stephen Wilson)
+ * bug fix: NIL can be used as a tagbody tag (thanks to Stephen Wilson)
+ * bug fix: Win32 port can now handle foreign code unwinding Lisp
+ stack frames from alien callbacks.
+ * bug fix: ATANH returned incorrect results on win32 (thanks to Pierre Mai)
+ * bug fix: SBCL works on Linux/ppc systems with a kernel configured to use
+ 65k pages (thanks to David Woodhouse)
+ * bug fix: fix SB-POSIX dirent and socket on NetBSD (thanks to Richard Kreuter)
changes in sbcl-1.0.1 relative to sbcl-1.0:
* new platform: FreeBSD/x86-64, including support for threading.
