for early 0.7.x:
-* building with CLISP (or explaining why not). This will likely involve
- a rearrangement of the build system so that it never renames
- the output from COMPILE-FILE, because CLISP's COMPILE-FILE
- outputs two (!) files and as far as I can tell LOAD uses both
- of them. Since I have other motivations for this rearrangement
- besides CLISPiosyncrasies, I'm reasonably motivated to do it.
* urgent EVAL/EVAL-WHEN/%COMPILE/DEFUN/DEFSTRUCT cleanup:
** made inlining DEFUN inside MACROLET work again
** (also, while working on INLINE anyway, it might be easy
(so that slam.sh will run faster and also just because
ideally everything would be in cold init)
** profiled and tweaked
+* fixed (TRACE :REPORT PROFILE ...) interface to profiling
* more EVAL/EVAL-WHEN/%COMPILE/DEFUN/DEFSTRUCT cleanup:
** made %COMPILE understand magicality of DEFUN FOO
w.r.t. e.g. preexisting inlineness of FOO
are now implemented as closures (because
they're structure slot accessors) won't be so
nasty in the debugger
- ** %SLOT-ACCESSOR/%SLOT-ACCESSOR stuff can probably go away,
- since we inline expand all slot accessors into
- %INSTANCE-REF and the optimizer knows all it needs
- to know about that.
* rewrote long-standing confusing error restarts for redefining
DEFSTRUCTs
* outstanding embarrassments
** cut-and-pasted DEF-BOOLEAN-ATTRIBUTE (maybe easier to fix
- now that EVAL-WHEN does what it should..)
+ now that EVAL-WHEN works correctly..)
** incomplete manual
** :IGNORE-ERRORS-P cruft in stems-and-flags.lisp-expr. (It's
reasonable to support this as a crutch when initially
os_trunc_foo(), os_round_up_foo()
** removed various avoid-evaluating-C-macro-arg-twice
cruft
-* added mechanisms for automatically finding dead symbols is
+* added mechanisms for automatically finding dead symbols in
package-data.lisp-expr (i.e. those symbols not bound,
fbound, defined as types, or whatever), and used them
to remove dead symbols
-* made system handle stack overflow safely unless SAFETY is dominated
- by SPEED or SPACE
* Either get rid of or at least rework the fdefinition/encapsulation
system so that (SYMBOL-FUNCTION 'FOO) is identically equal to
(FDEFINITION 'FOO).
+* building using CLISP (since building under OpenMCL works, this is
+ reduced to "it would be nice" rather than "as proof of concept")

out of scope. (However, it still might be possible to
determine that some or all of them are hopelessly stale
