 changes in sbcl-0.8.3 relative to sbcl-0.8.2:
+  * SBCL now builds and runs on MacOS X (version 10.2), or perhaps
+    more accurately, on the Darwin kernel running on PowerPC hardware.
+    (thanks to Brian Mastenbrook, Pierre Mai and Patrik Nordebo)
+  * Compiler code deletion notes now signal a condition of type
+    SB-EXT:CODE-DELETION-NOTE (a subtype of SB-EXT:COMPILER-NOTE) with
+    an associated MUFFLE-WARNING restart.
+  * The compiler now performs limited argument count validation of
+    constant format strings in FORMAT, and where appropriate in ERROR, 
+    CERROR and WARN.  (thanks to Gerd Moellmann)
   * bug fix: WITH-OUTPUT-TO-STRING (and MAKE-STRING-OUTPUT-STREAM) now
     accept and act upon their :ELEMENT-TYPE keyword argument.
     (reported by Edi Weitz)
-  * bug fix: FILE-POSITION now accepts position designators up to 
-    ARRAY-DIMENSION-LIMIT or the extreme of the off_t range, whichever 
+  * bug fix: FILE-POSITION now accepts position designators up to
+    ARRAY-DIMENSION-LIMIT or the extreme of the off_t range, whichever
     is the greater.  (thanks to Patrik Nordebo)
+  * bug fix: MAKE-ARRAY ignored :INITIAL-CONTENTS NIL. (reported by
+    Kalle Olavi Niemitalo)
+  * bug fix: the CLASS-PROTOTYPE of the GENERIC-FUNCTION class is now
+    printable.  (reported by Eric Marsden)
+  * bug fix in sb-posix: mmap() now works on systems with a 64-bit
+    off_t, including Darwin and FreeBSD.  (thanks to Andreas Fuchs)
+  * bug fix in WITH-TIMEOUT: now the body can have more than one form.
+    (thanks to Stig Sandoe)
+  * fixed some bugs revealed by Paul Dietz' test suite:
+    ** The system now obeys the constraint imposed by
+       UPGRADED-ARRAY-ELEMENT-TYPE that the upgraded array element
+       types form a lattice under type intersection.
+    ** FFLOOR, FTRUNCATE, FCEILING and FROUND work with integers.
+    ** ASSOC now ignores NIL elements in an alist.
