changes in sbcl-0.9.2 relative to sbcl-0.9.1:
+ * numerous signal handling fixes to increase stability
+ * Support for EUC-JP external format. (thanks to NIIMI Satoshi)
+ * minor incompatible change: we now correctly canonize default
+ initargs, making them be a list of (INITARG INITFORM INITFUNCTION)
+ as per the MOP, rather than the historical (INITARG INITFUNCTION
+ INITFORM). (reported by Bruno Haible)
+ * new feature: WITH-COMPILATION-UNIT now accepts a non-standard
+ :SOURCE-PLIST option. See (DOCUMENTATION #'WITH-COMPILATION-UNIT T)
+ for more information.
+ * TRUENAME and PROBE-FILE now correctly resolve symlinks even if the
+ pathname is a directory pathname.
* SB-SPROF now works (more) reliably on non-GENCGC platforms.
- * fixed some lockups due to gc/thread interaction
* dynamic space size on PPC has been increased to 768Mb. (thanks to
Cyrus Harmon)
* SB-MOP:ENSURE-CLASS-USING-CLASS now accepts a class as the
- :METACLASS argument in addition to a class name. (reported by
- Bruno Haible for CMUCL, patch for CMUCL by Gerd Moellman)
+ :METACLASS argument in addition to a class name. (reported by
+ Bruno Haible for CMUCL, patch for CMUCL by Gerd Moellmann)
+ * RESTART-CASE can now be wrapped around CALL-METHOD forms.
+ (reported by Bruno Haible; patch from Gerd Moellmann)
+ * bug fix: sbcl runtime can now be compiled with gcc4 (thanks to
+ Sascha Wilde)
+ * bug fix: more cleanups to the floating point exception handling on
+ x86-64 (thanks to James Knight)
+ * bug fix: the compiler does not try to constant fold calls of
+ COERCE and BIT-* functions when they return freshly constructed
+ objects. (reported by Nikodemus Siivola and Paul Dietz)
+ * optimization: improved the MIPS versions of generic (in the
+ generic sense) arithmetic routines. (thanks to Thiemo Seufer)
+ * optimization: direct conversion of (unsigned-byte 32) to floats on
+ the PowerPC platform.
+ * optimization: structure instances with raw slots now use less
+ memory, and probably show better memory locality. (thanks to
+ David Lichteblau)
+ * optimization: DYNAMIC-EXTENT declarations for lists and closures
+ are treated as requests for stack allocation on the x86-64,
+ Alpha-32, and PPC platforms.
+ * contrib improvement: it's harder to cause SOCKET-CLOSE to close()
+ the wrong file descriptor; implementation of SOCKET-OPEN-P.
+ (thanks to Tony Martinez)
+ * threads
+ ** gcing a dead thread can no longer lead to lockups
+ ** threads block signals until they are set up properly
+ ** errno is no longer shared by threads
+ ** interrupt-thread restores the eflags register on x86
+ ** fixed some lockups due to gc/thread interaction
* fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
- ** Invalid dotted lists no longer raise a read error when
+ ** invalid dotted lists no longer raise a read error when
*READ-SUPPRESS* is T
+ ** signal an error if a symbol that names a declaration is used
+ as the name of a type, or vice versa
+ ** allow using the (declare (typespec var*)) abbreviation for
+ (declare (type typespec var*)) with all type specifiers
+ ** circularity detection works properly with PPRINT-LOGICAL-BLOCK
+ ** always return NIL from PPRINT-POP when OBJECT is NIL
+ ** don't signal errors when pretty-printing malformed LABELS,
+ FLET or MACROLET forms
+ ** declarations in a DOLIST body are also in scope for the
+ DOLIST return-form
+ ** COMPILE-FILE accepts all pathname designators as INPUT-FILE
+ and OUTPUT-FILE
+ ** the ELEMENT-TYPE keyword argument to WITH-OUTPUT-STREAM is
+ always evaluated
changes in sbcl-0.9.1 relative to sbcl-0.9.0:
* fixed cross-compiler leakages that prevented building a 32-bit
