* minor incompatible change: changed experimental JOIN-THREAD interface
* documentation: the manual now lists reader and writer methods
in class slot documentation sections. (thanks to Richard M Kreuter)
- * documentation: unwinding from asynchronous events has been
+ * documentation: unwinding from asyncronous events has been
documented as unsafe.
* documentation: SB-SYS:WITHOUT-GCING has been documented as unsafe
in multithreaded application code.
- * bug fix: GC deadlocks from asynchronous interrupts has been fixed
- by disabling interrupts for the duration of any
- SB-SYS:WITHOUT-GCING section.
- * bug fix: RANDOM of large INTEGER is no longer slightly biased. (It
- used to be biased by as much as about 1/2000; many algorithms aren't
- sensitive to that, but Metropolis Monte Carlo algorithms are.) This
- involved a sizable rewrite, so if you think there's a new bug or
- performance problem in the code, you're probably right, please
- report it.
+ * optimization: GET-INTERNAL-REAL-TIME has been optimized on POSIX
+ platforms. (thanks to James Anderson for the optimization hint)
+ * bug fix: number of characters that can be written onto a single
+ line in a file is unlimited.
+ * bug fix: some GC deadlocks caused by asynchronous interrupts have
+ been fixed by inhibiting interrupts for when GC is disbled.
+ * bug fix: GETHASH, PUTHASH, CLRHASH and REMHASH are now interrupt safe.
+ * improvement: the x86-64/darwin port now passes all tests and
+ should be considered non-experimental.
changes in sbcl-1.0.4 relative to sbcl-1.0.3:
* new platform: experimental support for x86-64/darwin (MacOS).
