* fixed bugs 19 and 317: fixed-format floating point printing is
more accurate. This also fixes a bug reported by Adam Warner
related to the ~@F format directive.
+ * fixed bug 371: bignum print/read inconsistency. (thanks to Harald
+ Hanche-Olsen)
* fixed bug: SET-SYNTAX-FROM-CHAR correctly shallow-copies a
dispatch table if the from-char is a dispatch macro character.
* fixed bug: COUNT and EQUAL on bit vectors with lengths divisible
by the wordsize no longer ignore the last word. (reported by Lutz
Euler)
+ * fixed bug in type checking of dynamic-extent variables. (reported
+ by Svein Ove Aas)
* optimization: sequence traversal functions use their freedom to
coerce function designators to functions.
+ * optimization: code with many calls to CLOS methods specialized on
+ CLOS classes has had redundant type checks removed.
+ * optimization: added declarations to speed up operations that access
+ the internal character database (for example STRING-UPCASE)
+ * optimization: comparison operations between floats and sufficiently small
+ fixnums no longer create extra rationals
* fixed some bugs related to Unicode integration:
** portions of multibyte characters at the end of buffers for
character-based file input are correctly transferred to the
";" and "#|") are more forgiving to encoding errors; they will
STYLE-WARN and then attempt to resync the stream at a character
boundary. (thanks to Teemu Kalvas)
+ * fixed some bugs in the x86-64 port:
+ ** Negative short int return values from c-calls are sign-extended
+ correctly.
+ ** The stack is aligned to 16-bytes for c-calls, as required by
+ the ABI. (thanks to Cheuksan Wang)
+ ** The disassembler understands more x86-64. (thanks to Cheuksan Wang)
+ ** The regression tests use SB-ALIEN:INT instead of SB-ALIEN:INTEGER
+ for enums. (thanks to Vincent Arkesteijn)
* fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
** Space, Tab, Linefeed, Return and Page have the invalid
secondary constituent character trait.
** SET-SYNTAX-FROM-CHAR correctly copies multiple-escape character
syntax.
+ ** WITH-INPUT-FROM-STRING should only update the index place on
+ normal termination.
+ ** Pretty-printing backquoted forms when *PRINT-CIRCLE* is true
+ works more reliably.
changes in sbcl-0.8.19 relative to sbcl-0.8.18:
* new port: SBCL now works in native 64-bit mode on x86-64/Linux
