beginnings of a semantically meaningful condition hierarchy is
under development, for use in SB-EXT:MUFFLE-CONDITIONS and by
IDEs.
+ * fixed bug: PARSE-NAMESTRING now accepts any valid pathaname
+ designator as the defaults argument.
* fixed bug: Displaced arrays whose displaced-to array has become
too small now cause ARRAY-DIMENSION to signal an error, providing
for safer bounds-checking. (reported by Bruno Haible)
* fixed bug 321: define-method-combination argument lambda lists do
not cause invalid code to be generated when &optional or &aux
variables have default values. (reported by Bruno Haible)
+ * fixed bug 327: system subclasses of STRUCTURE-OBJECT or CONDITION
+ have CLOS classes; this appears also to have fixed reported
+ instability in stack exhaustion detection.
+ * fixed bug: the CONTROL-ERROR from ABORT, CONTINUE and
+ MUFFLE-WARNING when no associated restart is present is now
+ printable.
* optimization: rearranged the expansion of various defining macros
so that each expands into only one top-level form in a
:LOAD-TOPLEVEL context; this appears to decrease fasl sizes by
** ensured that pathnames, where they have a namestring, always
print using #P"..." syntax.
+changes in sbcl-0.8.12 relative to sbcl-0.8.11:
+ * the behaviour of the standard function ED is now customizeable by
+ third parties through a hook variable: see ED's documentation
+ string for information on the protocol.
+ * fixed bug 335: ATANH now computes the inverse hyperbolic tangent
+ even for difficult arguments. (reported by Peter Graves)

planned incompatible changes in 0.8.x:
* (not done yet, but planned:) When the profiling interface settles
down, it might impact TRACE. They both encapsulate functions, and
