+changes in sbcl-1.0.38 relative to sbcl-1.0.37:
+ * incompatible change: Thread names are now restricted to SIMPLE-STRINGs
like for any other thread-related datastructure, MUTEX, etc. (lp#547095)
- * DEPRECATION: the SB-QUEUE contrib was merged into the SB-CONCURRENCY
+ * deprecation: the SB-QUEUE contrib was merged into the SB-CONCURRENCY

- * new contrib: SB-CONCURRENCY is a new contrib; it's supposed to contain

+ * new contributed module: SB-CONCURRENCY is a new contrib; it's supposed to

+ * enhancement: up-to-date versions of NetBSD-current are supported. (Thanks
+ to Robert Swindells and Aleksej Saushev)
* bug fix: correct restart text for the continuable error in MAKE-PACKAGE.
