-;;; 2 = sbcl-0.6.4 uses COMPILE-OR-LOAD-DEFGENERIC.
-;;; 3 = sbcl-0.6.6 uses private symbol, not :EMPTY, for empty HASH-TABLE slot.
-;;; 4 = sbcl-0.6.7 uses HAIRY-DATA-VECTOR-REF and HAIRY-DATA-VECTOR-SET
-;;; when array headers or data element type uncertainty exist, and
-;;; uses DATA-VECTOR-REF and DATA-VECTOR-SET only for VOPs. (Thus,
-;;; full calls to DATA-VECTOR-REF and DATA-VECTOR-SET from older
-;;; fasl files would fail, because there are no DEFUNs for these
-;;; operations any more.)
-;;; 5 = sbcl-0.6.8 has rearranged static symbols.
