+changes relative to sbcl-1.0.42
+ * incompatible change: FD-STREAMS no longer participate in the serve-event
+ event-loop by default. (lp#316072)
+ ** In addition to streams created by explicit calls to MAKE-FD-STREAM this
+ affects streams from CL:OPEN.
+ ** Streams from SOCKET-MAKE-STREAM still participate in serve-event by
+ default, but this is liable to change: applications needing serve-event
+ for socket streams should explicitly request it using :SERVE-EVENTS T
+ in the call.
+ * enhancement: SB-EXT:WORD type is provided for use with SB-EXT:ATOMIC-INCF
+ &co.
+ * enhancement: CLOS effective method functions and defclass slot typechecking
+ function now have debug names for use in backtraces and profiles.
+ * enhancement: ASDF has been updated to version 2.004. (lp#605260, thanks to
+ Faré Rideau)
+ * enhancement: symbols are printed using fully qualified names in several
+ error and warning messages which are often associated with package
+ conflicts or mixups (lp#622789, thanks to Attila Lendvai)
+ * bug fix: SB-BSD-SOCKETS:SOCKET-CONNECT was not thread safe. (lp#505497,
+ thanks to Andrew Golding)

+ * bug fix: DOTIMES accepted literal non-integer reals. (lp#619393, thanks to
+ Roman Marynchak)
+ * bug fix: WRITE-TO-STRING compiler macro binding special variable names,
+ breaking code that tried to write the value of a printer control variable.
+ (lp#581564, thanks to Stas Boukarev)
+ * bug fix: WRITE compiler macro did not handle output stream designators
+ correctly. (lp#598374, thanks to Stas Boukarev)
+ * bug fix: better availability of names of foreign functions in backtraces
+ on Linux. (lp#626962, thanks to Stas Boukarev)
+ * bug fix: scripting and build for Solaris and FreeBSD. (lp#615497,
+ lp#627581, thanks to Josh Elsasser and Jim Wise)
+ * bug fix: build fixes for OpenBSD -current and 4.8 (lp#615489, lp#615492,
+ thanks to Josh Elsasser)
+ * bug fix: using aliases for builtin classes as defmethod specializers
+ without adding DEFTYPEs for them works. (lp#618387)
+ * bug fix: timetravel by getrusage() no longer causes type-errors during GC.
+ (lp#544421)
+ * bug fix: legally dynamic-extent lists and vectors used as
+ initialization arguments to MAKE-ARRAY can be stack allocated. (lp#586105)
+ * bug fix: inline-expansion creating references to dead lambda-variables
+ (lp#454681, thanks to Alexey Dejneka)
+ * bug fix: better error message for bogus numerical arguments to RANDOM.
+ (lp#598986, thanks to Stas Boukarev)
+ * bug fix: the compiler occasionally inlined references from incompatible
+ environments occurs. (lp#308951)
+ * bug fix: the compiler threw an error when trying to compile a local
+ function (labels or flet) known to take a specialized complex argument.
+ (not in launchpad, reported by sykopomp in #lispgames)
+ * bug fix: package-locks failed to protect against compile-time effects of
+ DEFUN when the symbol previously had a macro definition. (lp#576637)
+ * bug fix: spurious ignore warnings even given (DECLARE IGNORE) in methods
+ when parameter bindings mutated. (reported by Faré Rideau; lp #611361)
+ * bug fix: workaround for compiler hang in ORDER-UVL-SETS (lp#308914)
+ * bug fix: evaluation in debugger REPL works using the global context when
+ in frames that do not have sufficient debug information.
+ * bug fix: exceeding FD_SETSIZE limit now results in an sensible error
+ (lp#316068)
+ * bug fix: (SETF DOCUMENTATION) of a macro works properly. (lp#643958, thanks
+ to Stas Boukarev)
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.42 relative to sbcl-1.0.41
+ * build changes
+ ** Cross-compilation host is now specified to make.sh using
+ command-line argument --xc-host=<command> instead of a positional
+ argument. (thanks to Daniel Herring)
+ ** Install location can be specified to make.sh using command-line
+ argument --prefix=<path>. (lp#550889s, thanks to Daniel Herring)
+ * optimization: The default implementation of
+ COMPUTE-DISCRIMINATING-FUNCTION does much less wasted work.
+ * enhancement: Explicit memory barrier operations are now available for use
+ by multithreaded code. See documentation for details.
+ * enhancement: Experimental support for threading on Linux/PPC.
+ * bug fix: RENAME-PACKAGE returns the package. (Thanks to Eric Marsden)
+ * bug fix: EXPT signals an error if first argument is a zero and second
+ argument is a floating point zero. (lp#571581, thanks to Roman Marynchak)
+ * bug fix: DEFTYPE signals an error for non-list lambda-lists.
+ (lp#576594, thanks to Roman Marynchak)
+ * bug fix: make ASDF-INSTALL compatible with the now-included ASDF2.
+ (lp#612998, reported by Phil Hargett; patch from Jim Wise)
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.41 relative to sbcl-1.0.40:
+ * optimization: validity of observed keyword initargs to MAKE-INSTANCE is
+ cached, leading to many fewer expensive calls to
+ COMPUTE-APPLICABLE-METHODS.
+ * optimization: in the (unoptimized) general method for MAKE-INSTANCE on a
+ CLASS argument, search for and call an appropriate optimized ctor function
+ if it exists.
+ * bug fix: WRITE always returns the correct value.
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.40 relative to sbcl-1.0.39:
+ * bug fix: readdir now works on :inode64 darwin builds (lp#592897)
+ * bug fix: Name conflicts between symbols passed as arguments to a single
+ call to IMPORT no longer add multiple symbols with the same name to the
+ package (detectable via DO-SYMBOLS).
+ * bug fix: support building without the dlshim on darwin x86 and x86-64
+ (lp#533470).
+ * bug fix: TRACE :ENCAPSULATE NIL now works on ppc/linux.
+
+changes in sbcl-1.0.39 relative to sbcl-1.0.38:
* bug fix: Backtrace from undefined function on x86 and x86-64 now show
the calling frame.
* bug fix: linkage-table entries on PPC now no longer overflow their
* bug fix: Any noise left by SSE operations (sqrt and conversions) in the
high order bits are explicitly cleared out. In some contrived situations,
this could lead to wrong results in mixed real/complex float arithmetic.
+ * bug fix: Fix function/macro redefinition warnings when building with
+ clisp. (lp#576787, thanks to Josh Elsasser)
+ * new platform: experimental support for ppc/openbsd (thanks to Josh
+ Elsasser).
+ * bug fix: Floating-point traps now work on ppc/linux.
