+changes in sbcl-0.9.4 relative to sbcl-0.9.3:
+  * enhancement: SBCL on MIPS platforms now has a much larger dynamic
+    space for its heap.  (thanks to Thiemo Seufer)
+  * minor incompatible change: eof selects abort in the debugger.
+  * minor incompatible change: *INVOKE-DEBUGGER-HOOK* is run before
+    *DEBUGGER-HOOK* => *DEBUGGER-HOOK* is not run when the debugger
+    is disabled.
+  * minor incompatible change: SB-KERNEL:INSTANCE-LAMBDA is
+    deprecated, and will go away in a future revision of SBCL.
+  * bug fix: discriminating functions for generic function classes
+    with non-standard methods for COMPUTE-APPLICABLE-METHODS no longer
+    make invalid assumptions about method precedence order.  (reported
+    by Bruno Haible)
+  * bug fix: degree sign (<U00B0>) could not be encoded in KOI8-R.
+  * bug fix: correct pathname printing with printer escaping is on.
+    (thanks to Kevin Reid)
+  * bug fix: complex VOP definitions in "user-space" no longer trigger
+    package locks.  (reported by Zach Beane)
+  * fixed bug 343: SB-KERNEL:INSTANCE-LAMBDA is no longer necessary
+    for funcallable-instance functions, and is no different from
+    regular LAMBDA.
+  * optimizations: REMOVE-DUPLICATES now runs in linear time on
+    lists in some cases.  This partially fixes bug 384.
+  * flush all standard streams before prompting in the REPL and the
+    debugger.
+  * threads
+    ** bug fix: RELEASE-FOREGROUND doesn't choke on session lock if
+       there is only one thread in the session
+    ** bug fix: memory leak for streams created in one thread and
+       written to in another
