+  * optimization: the default implementation of
+    COMPUTE-DISCRIMINATING-FUNCTION does much less wasted work.
+  * enhancement: Explicit memory barrier operations are now available for use
+    by multithreaded code.  See documentation for details.
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.41 relative to sbcl-1.0.40:
+  * optimization: validity of observed keyword initargs to MAKE-INSTANCE is
+    cached, leading to many fewer expensive calls to
+    COMPUTE-APPLICABLE-METHODS.
+  * optimization: in the (unoptimized) general method for MAKE-INSTANCE on a
+    CLASS argument, search for and call an appropriate optimized ctor function
+    if it exists.
+  * bug fix: WRITE always returns the correct value.

+changes in sbcl-1.0.40 relative to sbcl-1.0.39:
+  * bug fix: readdir now works on :inode64 darwin builds (lp#592897)
+  * bug fix: Name conflicts between symbols passed as arguments to a single
+    call to IMPORT no longer add multiple symbols with the same name to the
+    package (detectable via DO-SYMBOLS).
+  * bug fix: support building without the dlshim on darwin x86 and x86-64
+    (lp#533470).
+  * bug fix: TRACE :ENCAPSULATE NIL now works on ppc/linux.

   * bug fix: Any noise left by SSE operations (sqrt and conversions) in the
     high order bits are explicitly cleared out. In some contrived situations,
     this could lead to wrong results in mixed real/complex float arithmetic.
+  * bug fix: Fix function/macro redefinition warnings when building with
+    clisp.  (lp#576787, thanks to Josh Elsasser)
+  * new platform: experimental support for ppc/openbsd (thanks to Josh
+    Elsasser).
+  * bug fix: Floating-point traps now work on ppc/linux.
