Analogously, + SB-EXT:PARSE-NATIVE-NAMESTRING takes an AS-DIRECTORY, forcing a + filename to parse into a directory pathname. + * enhancement: RUN-PROGRAM allows unicode arguments and environments + to be used (using the default stream external format), and allows + non-simple strings to be used. (thanks to Harald Hanche-Olsen) + * optimization: COPY-SEQ, FILL, and SUBSEQ are 30-80% faster for + strings and vectors whose element-type or simplicity is not fully + known at compile-time. + * optimization: STRING-TRIM and related functions no longer allocate + a new string when no trimming needs to be performed. These functions + are also faster than before when the input string has been declared + as a simple-string. + * optimization: READ-SEQUENCE on simple-strings is up to 80% faster. + * optimization: READ-LINE is significantly faster for files containing + long lines. + * optimization: non-open coded uses of character comparison operators + (e.g. char=) no longer cons when called with more than one parameter + on platforms supporting dynamic-extent allocation. + * bug fix: READ-SEQUENCE on composite stream wrapping a Gray stream + with STREAM-ELEMENT-TYPE (UNSIGNED-BYTE 8) signalled an error. + * bug fix: COPY-SEQ on lists did not signal a type-error on improper + lists in safe code. + * bug fix: some sequence functions elided bounds checking when + SPEED > SAFETY. + * bug fix: too liberal weakening of union-type checks when SPEED > + SAFETY. + * bug fix: more bogus fixnum declarations in ROOM implementation + have been fixed. + changes in sbcl-1.0.12 relative to sbcl-1.0.11: * new feature: MAKE-HASH-TABLE now experimentally accepts a :SYNCHRONIZED argument, which makes the hash-table safe for
